Tips / Destination

Traveling is an expensive hobby so no one will blame you if you try to save some pennies by finding cheap places to eat. Luckily, in Curitiba there are plenty of those to be found.

 

BarBaran

BarBaran is a bit of an enigma with its blend of traditional Brazilian bar food and unique Ukrainian treats. The food here is tremendous though, making it hard to find a seat, and the beer selection is the best in town.

 

Veg e Lev

It’s difficult to find healthy, affordable meals in America, but in Brazil they’re around every corner. Some of the best is at Veg e Lev, a vegetarian- and vegan-friendly joint that is popular among locals, but not well known by tourists.

 

Nona Giovana Massas e Carnes

Nona’s serves up some delicious Italian food in an assuming area of town. Meals are served just like your grandma would make them, hence the name. There’s nothing fancy here, but the bife a parmegiana is quite a delight.

 

Espetinhos Daniel E Xixo

For authentic Brazilian food look no further than Espetinhos Daniel E Xixo. They serve up generous portions of classic treats, all on skewers! It’s a quirky little atmosphere reminiscent of a run-down cafeteria, but the service is excellent and the food delectable.

United flyers are sure to notice these enhancements from the moment they step on board: Each new or updated plane sports remodeled seats, seatback entertainment screens for everyone, Bluetooth connectivity and more, all adding up to a better experience on every journey.

Peace of Mind Walking Your Dog with Sniffspot

If you don’t have a fenced yard and it’s difficult for you to get out of the house to walk or run with Fido, then you know just how difficult it can be to get all that canine energy out, but not taken out on your couch or cabinets. If your dog isn’t the best around other dogs or people, your problems are even more difficult to overcome.
