As my first day in Brazil went on, my friends and I continued exploring the beautiful city of São Paulo. Join us as we go on a Brazilian Japanese food tour of the Liberdade area of São Paulo!

My afternoon began in Liberdade, which is better known as the Japantown of the city. Brazil has the highest Japanese population outside of Japan, and a lot of them are right here in São Paulo! The first Japanese people arrived in Liberdade in 1908, and since then, it has become a community of Asian fusion, with people from China, South Korea, and other Asian nations settling there as well.

I couldn’t wait to go on this Japanese food tour and have some sake and takoyaki!

We passed by Kaisen Alimentos, which sells Takoyaki (octopus fritters), tempura, and okonomiyaki. But we started at a small shop called Restaurante Sato, which sells Brazilian-Japanese fusion.

We got pork and beef that had both been marinated in miso and some beans and rice. I loved the beans, and the miso-marinated beef and pork had that salty soy flavor I love! Next, I tried some chili sauce with chilies and ginger on the pork. It had a slight tingle, but wasn’t too hot. The fusion of flavors was fantastic!

I also had some crunchy and juicy turnip before we headed to an izakaya, which is a Japanese bar that also sells food. Along the way, we stopped at Coffee Selfie, which is a café where they take your picture and print it on the foam of your coffee! My iced coffee was basically a Frappuccino and was delicious!

It was raining a bit as we headed back out. We passed more spots selling yummy-looking Japanese food and arrived at an izakaya called Izakaya Kintaro, which is owned by a family of sumo wrestlers. Inside, we ordered eggplant with miso, pork with ginger, and some sake.

The Pure Junmai sake was nice and smooth. I loved the eggplant, which had a potent ginger flavor. The pork was shredded with miso and onions and was so tasty! Each dish was $4, but the sake was $10 USD. They were delicious Brazilian tapas!

Next to the izakaya is a Hello Kitty store called Eat Asia that sells lots of snacks. They also sell shirts, dolls, and more. I headed upstairs, where they have cupcakes, cakes, cookies, and more.

From there, we passed lots of stores and passed under a Japanese gate and crossed a bridge over the highway. There, you’ll find lots of souvenir vendors, and past the bridge is a beautiful Japanese garden, but it was closed. We also saw a couple of Japanese supermarkets, a subway station, the national bank (which looked like a Japanese temple), and street food vendors.

One of the vendors was selling sugarcane juice, and the other was making tempura. The sugarcane juice was Sao Paulo-style (mixed with pineapple) and is really sweet. Then, I tried some raw sugarcane and some sugarcane with lime, which is the Rio-style. I liked both, but the local style was my favorite!

Then, we went to Yoka, which makes pasteles, but they’re Japanese-style. I got the one with ground beef, tomatoes, cheese, and egg, which is their famous pastel. It’s crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I loved the egg inside and the spicy sauce I added. It was like a Colombian empanada!

We also had fritters made of shredded chicken, celery, and potatoes. It was similar to dishes I’ve had in Colombia. It was mushy and nice with the chili sauce, which added a nice kick.

Next, we went to Izakaya Issa to have some takoyaki and soju! The octopus fritters were topped with bonito flakes. It had a sweet sauce on top and was very soft with nice chunks of octopus inside. So good!

The soju is made from distilled sweet potatoes, so it’s a little sweet and a little stronger than sake.
