The Carnival in Rio de Janeiro is famous worldwide. It is the great explosion of joy in Rio with a huge celebration that unites emotions, creativity, plasticity, colours, sounds and a lot of fantasy – some consider it the greatest popular party in the world. New Year’s Eve festivity involves the whole of the population.
Locals and visitors join to celebrate euphorically the fact that they are in Rio. It takes place on the famous beach of Copacabana, gathering thousands to enjoy musical performances and fireworks – increasingly exuberant year after year.

“Feijoada” (a black bean and pork stew) has become the national dish for Brasil. It is typical Saturday lunch – both at home and at the better restaurants. This speciality is served with white rice, finely shredded kale, “farofa” (manioc root toasted with butter) and sliced oranges.
Seafood (shrimp and lobster in particular) is excellent in Rio – but expensive whilst fish is not.
Sidewalk cafes can have surprisingly good food. Snacks and aperitifs are normally served at the tables outside, complete meals inside. One recommended dish is “Frango Pasarinho” – wonderfully deep-fried bits of chicken with lots of garlic.

Don't miss trying the refreshing but dangerous "caipirinha", made from Brazilian cachaça rum, sugar and lemon juice. Rio also has excellent beer - order "chop" for small size draft. And remember – always drink bottled water.
