D.O.M.

D.O.M., established in 1999 by chef Alex Atala in São Paulo, pioneers a bold and original cuisine that celebrates the richness of Brazilian socio-biodiversity. The restaurant's dishes highlight native Brazilian ingredients such as jambu, tucupi, açaí, priprioca, bacuri, and the iconic Amazonian ant, many of which were once little known beyond their regions of origin. Each creation treats ingredients as memories and territories, reflecting the country's natural and cultural diversity through an evolving culinary concept. The sophisticated and elegant setting features modern, minimalist décor with wood, soft lighting, and natural elements, arranged to ensure privacy and an intimate sensory experience. D.O.M. offers tasting menus and a reinterpreted traditional executive lunch centered on rice and beans, all developed through extensive research and immersion in Brazil's diverse food cultures. Chef Atala and his team annually design unique themed menus inspired by their encounters with local producers and artisans. Recognized as one of Brazil’s most acclaimed restaurants, D.O.M. was the first in the country to earn two Michelin stars and maintained a place in The World's 50 Best Restaurants for 12 consecutive years. The restaurant combines sophisticated technique, creativity, and a deep respect for biodiversity, sustainability, and the preservation of local food traditions.
