Experience the gastronomic roots of Florianópolis!
Discover the flavors of Floripa through gastronomic experiences that value culture, local ingredients and local traditions.
Florianópolis was recognized as Creative City UNESCO of Gastronomy thanks to the richness of its food culture, which was born from the encounter between the knowledge of the Azores, indigenous people and various immigrant peoples. The local cuisine is the result of centuries of adaptations, where the Azoreans, upon arriving on the Island of Santa Catarina, reinvented their traditions with the available ingredients, such as cassava, fish and seafood, learned from the Carijó Indians. This mixture gave rise to a unique cuisine, marked by still-active flour mills, recipes such as pirão and the creative use of local products. Today, the diversity of influences — Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, German, Arab and Japanese — continues to inspire new traditions, making gastronomy a pillar of cultural tourism and the identity of the local people.
