Chef Rô
From R$ 220.00
Croissants in the oven, eggs Benedict plated to order, and mimosas poured on the varanda while the morning breeze still cools Praia do Canto. Your building's view is the restaurant.
Vitória's brunch scene is a handful of cafés with weekend lines — hardly worthy of an island city with this much economic power. A personal chef flips the equation: the full spread comes to your apartment in Praia do Canto, Mata da Praia, or Enseada do Suá, where the view of the bay is already better than any table in town.
Vitória's climate makes lunch and dinner hosting a sweaty proposition for whoever is at the stove. Brunch happens in the coolest hours of the day — and with a chef running the kitchen, you're on the varanda with your guests instead of over a hot frying pan at noon.
The whole point of brunch is abundance: pastries next to eggs made to order, tropical fruit beside charcuterie, coffee and sparkling wine flowing in parallel. That's three kitchens' worth of work for one host — and a normal morning's work for a professional chef.
Tell us the date, the group size (4–15 guests is the sweet spot), and the occasion — a lazy Sunday, a birthday brunch, or a baby shower. Let us know if it's your Vitória apartment or a weekend house in Guarapari or Vila Velha.
Your chef proposes a spread mixing brunch classics with local flavor: specialty coffee from the Espírito Santo mountains, tropical fruit from the highlands, shrimp from Anchieta for the savory table. Once you approve, the chef handles every purchase.
The chef arrives about 90 minutes early, sets up the sweet and savory stations, cooks eggs to order as guests ask, and keeps the coffee and mimosa bar stocked for the whole morning.
When the last mimosa is poured, the chef breaks everything down, cleans the kitchen, and leaves it exactly as found. Your afternoon is free — the beach is right there, after all.
Vitória is one of the few Brazilian capitals where brunch makes more sense than dinner. The island heat peaks by early afternoon, so the best entertaining window is the morning — a varanda in Praia do Canto or Jardim Camburi catching the sea breeze at 10 a.m. is as good as outdoor dining gets in this city.
Weekends have their own rhythm here: half the city migrates to beach houses in Guarapari or apartments in Vila Velha. Personal chefs travel with them — a Saturday brunch for a house full of friends in Praia da Costa, or a post-beach Sunday spread in Guarapari, is one of the most requested formats. Back on the island, baby showers and birthday brunches fill homes in Jardim da Penha and Bento Ferreira.
The ingredients work in brunch's favor too. Espírito Santo is Brazil's largest robusta coffee producer, but the mountain towns around Santa Teresa grow arabica that wins national awards — the perfect closing course. Add tropical fruit from highland farms, fresh cheese, and Anchieta shrimp for the savory table, sourced through the Mercado da Vila Rubim and local producers.
Local Tip
Ask your chef to brew coffee from Santa Teresa's mountain producers tableside as the closing course. In the state that grows more coffee than any other in Brazil, it turns dessert into a conversation piece.
Per-person pricing depends on the menu and group size. Split among guests, a chef-made brunch usually lands close to what the same group would spend at a hotel brunch — with no lines, no time limit, and a view you already own.
R$80–R$200 per person (groups of 4–15)
Gather your people, open the varanda doors, and let the chef handle the rest — from the first croissant to the last clean dish.
