Praça Benedito Calixto saturday mornings, same coffee stall
Same stall, but go before 9, it gets mobbed.
yeah by 10 it's shoulder to shoulder, though the pastel guy on the far corner stays quiet till noon
before 8:30 if u want the good pão de queijo, they sell out
The coffee queue moves faster if you order at the counter inside instead of waiting at the window.
counter trick works at padarias too, just ask for the balcão instead of waiting to be seated
true, and at busy ones just stand at the balcão and eat standing, staff clock you faster than at a table. took me a couple weeks of morning pingado runs before they knew my order
Feira da Vila Madalena, sunday mornings instead.
sundays at Vila Madalena work better for me too, less crowded than saturday. stick around the pastel and caldo de cana stalls on the Rua Harmonia side and after a month the vendors start recognizing you. thats honestly how half my circle there began.
go early and hit the pastel stands on the far side, that's where the actual regulars cluster
I prefer the pastel stall by the church, less wait.
