Paraty and Angra dos Reis: A Complete Travel Guide with the Best Tips
In Paraty, Praia Grande is a tourist village of fishermen with access to hiking trails leading to the near by waterfalls. “Quiosque São Francisco,” also known as the “Catarina’s restaurant,” beautifully embraces the caiçara spirit with beachside lounge chairs and tables set in the sand. One of the delightful dishes that captivate visitors is the “moqueca de siri” (crab stew).
Os restaurantes imperdíveis de Paraty
O Quiosque São Francisco fica à beira-mar, em um ambiente superagradável pé na areia. Ele é um anexo da Pousada Catarina, na Praia Grande, a cerca de 10km Paraty. Passar o dia nesta praia tranquila, com uma boa música ao fundo, é a sugestão, junto com o ceviche e a moqueca do cardápio - que ganham destaque na minha opinião.

Restaurante Vegano em Paraty
O único quiosque da cidade que conheço com opção vegana que sai do arroz e feijão. No quiosque São Francisco você encontra uma moqueca de banana da terra deliciosa, ela serve duas pessoas, mas você pode pedir uma porção menor se quiser para um.
