For a more unusual dinnertime experience, try Casa do Chef: the restaurant where you imbibe as much knowledge as nutrients. Having crisscrossed the globe as a distinguished chef and professor, Fabio Taveira chose Foz as the site of his part-restaurant, part-gastronomy school. Every night the chef plates up a selection of exquisite Brazilian cuisine, before treating his guests to a history lesson on the cultural heritage of their meal.

Note: only available with advance booking.
