After arriving in beautiful São Paulo, Brazil, I officially kicked off my Brazilian road trip with a trip to the central market for breakfast! Join me as I enjoy some phenomenal Brazilian street food in São Paulo, Brazil!

We started our adventure at the Central Market, which is located in a building built back in 1933. It’s a one-stop shop that includes a supermarket and street food. They also have a three-kilo mortadella sandwich. São Paulo was influenced by Italian, Japanese, Spanish, Portuguese, and German immigrants, so there’s a huge mix of flavors there, and I couldn’t wait to try them!

I’d be exploring with my friend Aurelio from Be My Guest SP and Guilherme from Rio4Fun and Rio4Food. Inside are vendors selling seafood, pork, cheese, fruit, meats, alcoholic beverages, and more. The spaced-out layout of the market reminded me of a Spanish market! Because it was December, it was decorated for Christmas!

The market has a couple hundred vendors. We came across one selling cuts of beef, dried meat, chorizo, and more. They sell all the types of meat and beans that are used to make feijoada, a Brazilian stew made of beans and pork.

They also have bacalhau, a type of cold-water cod from Norway. We also saw lots of olive oils, chili sauces, and chilies. I tried a chili, which was super hot. I also had some amazing Italian garlic. They also had olives, nuts, and spices.

Next was a type of spicy salami drenched in oil and a spicy cheese salad with grapes and pineapple.

Next, we went to Bar Do Mané to try a mortadella sandwich. Mortadella is a type of cold cut that’s a blend of beef and pork. I used to eat it in Italy a lot. The mortadella was phenomenal and peppery. I loved it with lime squeezed on top. It was the best mortadella I’ve ever eaten! Then, I went in the back to see them make a mortadella sandwich!

The sandwich was massive and dripping with gooey, salty cheese. I also had some pico de gallo, with onions, tomato, and cilantro on it. The olive oil and vinegar on it was amazing, and I added a bit of hot sauce. It costs only $7 USD and was super filling.

Next, I went to get some draft beer at Bar Do Mané. It was a crystal-clear, crisp, and refreshing lager. It was perfect for a hot day like today! Then, we went to try some fruit in the center of the market.

We had some delicious, watery yellow dragonfruit; some amazing Brazilian figs; dates with a strawberry that was almost like strawberries with chocolate. I also tried a spongy, unique cashew fruit, mango, two different types of passionfruit (including a green one from the center of the country that was full of juice), and a fleshy yellow kiwi.

Then, we headed up to the second level of the market, where they have 10 restaurants, including Brazilian and Japanese spots. You also get a great view over the market up there!

I smelled some amazing-smelling tobacco that looked like sausage, and then we tried some locally-made upscale cheese. The mozzarella was so good! I followed that with some strong, fragrant, and floral sugarcane alcohol. It was similar to grappa and rakija and was smoky like tequila. Next was some unreal fig cachaça and some Antarctica brand guarana sparkling cherry soda.

Then, I had a pastel de bacalhau, which is a fried, crispy pastry stuffed with shredded cod and herbs. I added some chilies, which made it even better! I loved it! The fish wasn’t salty. It was like a better version of an empanada! Next was orange, lime, and strawberry juice.

This is one of my favorite markets in the world!
