Bargaço

Whilst looking over the Capibaribe river and Recife's old town ahead, guests at Bargaço enjoy exquisite seafood, fine service and impressive surroundings.

Fabulous appetizers include cream of seafood, lobster bites, crab claws and scrumptious fresh or baked oysters. Bargaço's generous menu offers an inspiring variety of dishes with a number of prawn recipes, lavish stews and the ultimate seafood pasta.

Satisfying all sort of lobster cravings, the freshest and tastiest coral beauties are served in catupiry soft cheese or butter sauces, grilled, or greedily combined with fish and prawns.

The moqueca stews are traditionally served in clay pots, with the right hint of palm oil for extra silkiness and superb taste. Special octopus rice and codfish recipes also figure among the wishlist.

A modern wine cellar was designed to receive guests before and after feasting with the finest red, white and sparkling wines.

Sugary treats reveal local preferences as the Romeo e Julieta: grilled local butter cheese with guava preserves. Delicious beyond words.
