The restaurant of Projeto Montanha is one of the best lunch stops around. It offers a short but quality menu of comfort dishes like lasagne, steak and juicy fried chicken, accompanied by delicious fresh-squeezed juices. Finish with local coffee and Brazilian fudge. Much of the produce comes from their organic garden and service is super-welcoming.
