The initiative is part of the graduation project from a group of students of the kitchen assistant course

What is the best way to test your knowledge in the kitchen? Cooking, of course. For this reason, the training course for kitchen assistants at Gastronomia Periférica, a social business that offers free cooking classes to students from the outskirts of São Paulo (Max Jaques, the researcher chef at Instituto Brasil a Gosto has been a teacher in this course), decided to transform the graduation project of the first semester of this year in a real life experience: opening a pop-up restaurant during this weekend.

On Saturday and Sunday (29th and 30th June), the project will open a restaurant in its Base Cozinha Compartilhada space to serve some very Brazilian meals:  for the first lunch, feijoada, in the evening a six-course tasting menu, taken from the book “Por que Criei a Gastronomia Periférica”, written by the chef Edson Leite, and on Sunday, oxtail with watercress and a dessert.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Check the menu for Saturday evening:
