From the From the May 2008 Food & Wine Go List
Chef Alex Atala incorporates the city's diverse ethnic influences—including Japanese, Portuguese and African—in his nouveau-Brazilian cuisine. Many of his dishes feature exotic Amazonian ingredients he cultivates on his own herb farm in Macapá, on the banks of the Amazon River.
We loved: Foie gras with wild rice and (a sweet-sour local fruit).
Insider tip: In late 2008, Atala will open a traditional Brazilian restaurant half a block from D.O.M.
