Since opening in 1999, D.O.M. has become hot news in Brazil, being the first restaurant in South America to be included in the top 50 restaurants of the world. Starring Brazil’s top chef Alex Atala, the cuisine consists of “elegant French-inflected dishes with traditional Brazilian ingredients”(newsweek.com). Located in the elite Jardins district, the chic restaurant is airy with “minimal décor” which is “corporate yet comfortable”(newsweek.com). Chef Alex Atala puts heavy emphasis on only using the freshest of ingredients in his kitchen, where “gastronomical wonders such as foie gras and truffles are as important as sardines and manoic”(domrestaurante.com). Even the most humble of ingredients get “the star treatment in Atala’s talented hands”(newsweek.com).
