Bairro da Liberdade

Breakfast: Bakery Itiriki

At Rua dos Estudantes, you will find Bakery Itiriki, with several exotic products. Don’t miss the delicious pobá juice, a traditional Taiwan drink made from pobá, the Chinese “dark pearl”. The ingredient is made with cassava starch in a process similar to sagu. For the juice, it is mixed with other flavors, like green tea, black tea, yam, tropical fruits, strawberry and melon. Another delicacy is the “melon-pan”, a bun melon shaped with a crispy exterior and vanilla flavor. There is also curry bread, filled with potato, carrots and chicken. To wrap it up, taste the green tea cake – very smooth and with a delicious aroma.

Morning Ride: streets of Liberdade

To the left, facade of building with Japanese architectural elements; Several people walking on an accessible sidewalk with several red lighting posts, which have 3 white lampshades in the form of Japanese lanterns. To the center, street turned into boardwalk. To the right, several colorful flower stalls and handicrafts. In the background, several buildings and some trees.

Liberdade is a very interesting neighborhood. Its main streets have in its decoration the traditional oriental lights and the signs in some stores are written in Chinese and Japanese. Walking around there can be fantastic. Enjoy stores and oriental markets with traditional food and products, from decoration articles, to kitchen appliances, music CDs and DVDs, anime, HQs and games.

Lunch: Lamen Kazu

A specialized lamen (a refrigerated oriental kind of pasta imported directly from Japan) Japanese restaurant, Lamen Kazu provides, in Brazil, the authentic Japanese flavor. The lamen is a Chinese dish, which developed in Japan, adapted to the taste of the Japanese and establishing a peculiar style. Nowadays is a well-appreciated dish on Japanese culinary and that represents its culture, just like sushi, sukiyaki and tempura.

Afternoon Ride: Buddhist Temples

Very black hair compacted above the head and adorned with wooden ornaments and red ribbons. In one hand is a little black open niece and decorated with drawings of pink flowers. Behind her, a wooden panel with several Japanese swords hanging. On the left, Maneki Neko doll, one of the most famous amulets in Japan in the world, in the form of a white cat sitting with a red scarf around his neck and a chest frame that bears figures of the 7 Gods of Luck (Fortune And happiness in Shinto), composed of several multicolored human figures in high relief. In each of the hands, the cat holds a lucky charm. Behind it, a glass panel with the word "Japan" painted in gold lettering.
