La Mulata, Brazilian restaurant in Reggio nell'Emilia, Italy.
La Mulata is a Brazilian restaurant in Reggio nell'Emilia, bringing South American cooking to the Emilia-Romagna region. The menu covers classics like feijoada and grilled meats prepared following Brazilian recipes.
The restaurant was founded to introduce Brazilian food to a region known for its own strong cooking traditions. It was one of the first places in Emilia-Romagna to focus entirely on South American cuisine.
La Mulata brings the churrasco tradition to northern Italy, where cuts of meat are grilled on long skewers and brought directly to the table. This way of eating, with servers coming around until guests are full, is a social ritual in Brazil.
The restaurant is not open every day, so it is worth checking the hours before you go. Booking a table in advance is a good idea, especially on weekends.
Alongside the grilled meat service, the restaurant offers a buffet of hot and cold Brazilian dishes, which sets it apart from most places that serve only à la carte. Guests can move freely between different preparations rather than sticking to a single order.
