Cantina delle Ragazze, Bexiga.
A tasteful immersion in the traditional Italian cuisine.

I honestly was always interested in seeing the Italian neighbourhood in Sao Paulo, where old houses were converted into Italian Canteens. I had the privilege to go to Cantina Delle Ragazze: a cosy, simple and colourful restaurant located in a very charming street. Had I known that the experience would be so great, I would never be at home on Sundays. I was accompanied by my girlfriend and a couple of friends who were also searching for a new dining out experience.

The place is very traditional and nice. An exhilarating place for those who like fuzarca; a traditional Italian music followed by live wailing sirens whose noise is not a struggle, on the contrary, it is quite funny. Curiously, there is a stuffed rooster at the entrance which screams occasionally. Indeed, it gives a peculiar impression in the place.

However, we have encountered a problem. Despite the valuable service provided by highly skilled waiters, we had to join the queue line for the toilets, which was in my opinion extremely unpleasant. Luckily, a young lady could solve the disturbance swiftly, guiding the customers with patience and politeness.

The menu is so great that makes you feel like being somewhere in Italy. At first, we settled on sharing a pair of appetizers such as the insalata di lenticchie, a delightful and extremely interesting lentil salad seasoned with curry, fennel and lemon, a combination that wouldn't have occurred to me but was quite good. The meat was delicious, extremely tender, with mouth-watering creamed spinach, simple and tasty.

The wine list is very competent; congratulating the Cantinetta Antinori features all of Antinori's wines, and is thus an excellent place to taste by the glass. The prices are reasonable. Actually, depending upon what you eat, expect to spend between 50 and 80 reais per person (or more if you order a rare vintage). All in all, given the atmosphere, this is more than reasonable. Highly recommended.

[The wine list is very extensive, containing all of Antinori's wins. I congratulate the Cantinetta Antinori for making so many wines available by the glass. The prices are very reasonable, the average spend being between 50 - 80 reais per person. Rare vintages are available for those with deeper pockets. Overall, with the quality of food, the atmosphere and the excellent wine it is well worth it. Highly recommended.]

I have offered an alternative for the last paragraph, which I feel reads better. Overall well written - well done.
