Yemanjá is the goddess of the sea in the Candomblé religion and homage is paid to her in a special ceremony each New Year’s Eve. (See Macumba, page 11, for details). This is one place where you should accept the couvert because it is a sampling of hors d’oeuvres. You can taste grilled squid, vatapas (fish stew) and tapioca pancakes. Main dishes, prepared for two, include moquecas (seafood stew), bobós (shrimp stew) and vatapas (fish and chopped nuts). Very informal.
