After training in some of Europe’s best kitchens, including Geranium and Amass, Brazilian chef Tássia Magalhães returned home to São Paolo to introduce her fiercely personal interpretation of Italian cuisine to the city. Eating at Nelita has been compared to stepping into the chef’s own home, though the warm natural stone, wood, and leather interiors are as elegant as any fine dining restaurant. Choose a tasting menu or à la carte, and try snacks including octopus vinaigrette donut and brioche with foie gras and matcha. Pasta dishes feature tomato and fresh curd risotto, and agnolotti with goat cheese and lime, followed by meat or vegetarian courses and an entertaining dessert selection. Visit on a Tuesday for the most elaborate menu, including ‘The Stage’ selection of six snacks and ‘Ballerina’s Box’ of petits fours, with the dancers represented by corn, honey, beetroot, and hibiscus candy.
