Check it out below!

1. Kosushi Itaim

To open our list of establishments, architect Renata Florenzano - who designed the Espaço Terra Brasil project for CASACOR - suggested Kosushi Itaim ( @kosushi ). Lovers of Japanese cuisine will be able to enjoy delicious haute cuisine dishes and also count on a "cozy environment where the owners welcome us with great affection", says Renata. Kosushi has already received a Michelin star, one of the highest honors a restaurant can earn worldwide. The project was designed by Arthur Casas , and the interior architecture is one of the points that Renata highlights about the establishment, in addition to the " freshness of Japanese food, ideal at this time of year ."

2. Oven

With a variety of snack options, pizzas and succulent starters, Fôrno ( @forno_sp ) is the favorite space of architect Kika Tiengo - who designed the Hall Abluo project for CASACOR São Paulo this year. Located in Vila Buarque, the industrial-style space immerses visitors in a cool, personality-filled environment. "Fôrno is one of my favorites for several reasons: delicious, unpretentious food, drinks, and spaces . I love it because it's one of the places that brings new life to the city center," said Kika. The establishment is located in a townhouse from 1860. The project, "full of soul and personality", as Kika described it, was designed by the Office134 firm. The architect also highlighted the advantage of a variety on the menu to suit the most diverse palates: "One of my children loves the pastrami coxinha, another the pudding and another the pizza - yes, we have enough children for the whole menu!"

3. Meow

Chef Renata Vanzetto's restaurant was chosen by architect Pedro Luiz de Marqui (who debuted at CASACOR São Paulo this year with the Estúdio Liberdade project) as the best place to socialize. Miado ( @restaurante.miado ) still smells new! It opened in July of this year and is part of the EME Group. "I think the atmosphere is super nice. The crockery and glasses are beautiful, the presentation of the dishes is beautiful, and the food is delicious and very different, with lots of options to share , which makes the gathering more interactive," said Pedro.

TETTO ( @tettolounge ) is an innovative rooftop that brings New York style to Avenida Rebouças, in São Paulo. The suggestion came from interior designer Matheus Lima , the youngest professional to debut at CASACOR with his " Sans Tache ". The privileged view is just one of the benefits offered by the bar and restaurant, which is located in the WZ Hotel Jardins. Matheus Lima says he likes the establishment because it is "one of the most attractive and relaxed restaurants and lounges in São Paulo. In addition to a super pleasant atmosphere, well-animated by a DJ, it has a very nocturnal design and very charming lighting that is surrounded by the practically 360º view of the São Paulo skyline ", he says. To top it off, he also recommends visitors to enjoy the place's food and drinks. The hotel's façade project was designed by architect Guto Requena , from CASACOR, who opted for an elegant and peaceful space for visitors.

6. Barbecue Farm

Located in a listed building, Fazenda Churrascada ( @fazendachurrascada ) brings together history in a delicious and fresh space in the southern part of São Paulo, in the Morumbi neighborhood. The restaurant was the choice of architect Beatriz Quinelato - who designed Estúdio Terra at CASACOR São Paulo this year. It goes without saying that meat is the specialty of the place. For Beatriz, the restaurant is perfect for socializing: "in addition to being in an open space , super pleasant and suitable for gathering, the place has history and beautiful architecture."

6. Ibirapuera View Restaurant

To ensure there is no shortage of options, Quinelato offers another tasty tip: Vista Restaurante Ibirapuera ( @vistaibirapuera ). The place, which is managed by Chef Marcelo Côrrea Bastos, is located at the top of MAC USP (Museum of Contemporary Art of the University of São Paulo). "I love this place because, in addition to the excellent cuisine, the restaurant is located on the rooftop of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Ibirapuera Park. So, in addition to eating well, you can enjoy the beautiful view of São Paulo in an open space . And, depending on the time, you can even take a tour of the MAC," says the architect.
