Gui Boratto - Secret Sao Paulo
Gui shares his favourite area to visit in the city
Villaboim Square
This is a little square in the Higienopolis neighbourhood and is my favourite place. Although it is not secret exactly, most people don't know how cool it is...it has some of my favourite spots within it.
Villaboim Square has some of the best restaurants, three great Japanese places and one really cool French Bistro called 'Le Vin', which serves the most incredible Steak Tartare. Better than anything I've tasted in Paris!
The Square also has some great shops, including the best magazine and book shop in town.
The other thing you have to see if you pass by Villaboim Square is the big and beautiful FAAP University. Seasonally, they have amazing exhibitions there - you have to see one!
In the end, it's just great that you can have all these amazing little places in one square.
I really hope you don't forget to enjoy this beautiful place!
