This cozy little spot is renowned as one of Rio's best vegetarian joints, and has a plum location close to the train stations for rides up to the Christ statue. Along with delicious fresh juices and meat-free sandwiches and snacks, Prana has a daily set lunch menu, usually with a vegan and gluten free option. The dishes - such as a mushroom 'bobo' (creamy stew made with coconut and, usually, shrimp) are typically served with fried collard greens and wholegrain rice, alongside inventive sides such as baked green banana with an almond crust. Prices are extremely fair, considering the quality, attention to detail and the location in prime tourist territory.
