Chow Down in Sao Paulo



I recently produced a series of maps for bespoke travel company Plan South America and now the South American theme continues with a commission from leading newspaper, the Wall Street Journal. I was delighted to be asked to produce and illustrate a map of the wonderful city of Sao Paulo for the front cover of the weekend section Off Duty. The map depicts various eateries featured in a piece whereby renowned chef Alex Atala offers a guided tour of the city and its culinary excellence. He discusses the best places to find fabulous food in a fabulous location. Sao Paulo definitely has something for the adventurous foodies, what with one restaurant, DOM, serving ants. Yes, actual ants. Although, surely you’d need a lot of them to feel full? Perhaps they’re served as a side dish.
