I grew up cheering for the Yankees, so watching them play on their home turf brings back good memories. Be sure to check out Lobel's for a steak sandwich with olive spread all on a warm bun. It's the best.
Located in the Sao Cristovao Fair, Baiao De Dois is a must stop. If you are an adventurous eater like me try the Buchada de bode, a goat haggis. It's the most popular item at the market.
In a city filled with Botequins, Aconchego Carioca stands out as one of the best. Try the Frango ao Molho Pardo, or the chicken in blood sauce. It is a great Portuguese dish.
