Estadao
Open 24 hours, Estadao is probably most similar to an American diner experience. There are stools that are planted into the ground, and it faces the kitchen. You can order your food pretty quickly, and most of the food options they offer are rustic and blue-collar types of meals. Think of these as a glutton of rice and beans with meat. They also offer beer for that post work relaxation. When you walk in, simply head to the back and take a seat anywhere that’s open. The attendant will come to you and take your order, or you can flag him down.
Ambiance & Service
As mentioned before, the environment is very akin to a diner type of atmosphere. Depending what you order, the food can come out either really fast or takes some time.
When you pay, you take the bill to the middle of the store where there is the cashier.
Food
The glass of Acai (R$15) and Caju (R$15) were both very delicious and fresh, especially for a snack place like this. The acai was more sweet than expected, but the caju was mixed in with milk instead of water. It was absolutely delicious and very flavorful.
The Pernil com Provolone (R$46) was a very simple sandwich just pork shoulder meat, some pickled peppers, and provolone cheese. They gave a generous amount of pork to fill the sandwich. The seasoning on the pork was a little saltier than expected, but if you were hungry, this would most definitely satisfy that hunger.
Overall Impression
This is the type of food that I’d like to try again since it’s very accessible and pretty decent. For a cheap meal, it will satisfy that hunger.
Yelp & Google Jabs
Maybe I ordered the wrong sandwich because other people’s dishes certainty looked more appetizing.
My pernil sandwich was definitely on the drier side, but for Brazilian sandwiches, this may be the norm.
The worst thing I’ve ever ordered through iFood. It arrived dripping with oil because the container wasn’t suitable for delivery.
iFood is equivalent to the USA’s version of Uber Eats. It seems it’s a global phenomenon where people rate the food based on delivery orders, which unfortunately will never taste the same as if it was served fresh.
