Brazilian food by Brazilians. Can’t get any better than that.

When it comes to holes in the wall, Poblacion definitely tops the list. It’s constantly brewing with bright new eats that only those willing to brave Makati traffic can handle. Along its bustling streets comes a hidden gem that aims to bring the best of Brazil to our plates: Boteco Brasil.

Boteco Brasil – Poblacion, Makati

Boteco Brasil is a hip restaurant and bar that serves the best of Brazil’s rich and exotic cuisine. Upon missing the taste of home, owners Fabio Ide, Jaque Borges, Luane De Lima, and Arlen Gaspar decided to bring their ideas to life–resulting in a place that truly provides an authentic Brazilian dining experience.

Even though the restaurant has a laid-back vibe in the evening, the ambience amps up by midnight. Vibrant beats and even live music fill up the space as guests enjoy their drinks, including spirits and cocktails.
