Alto Paraíso de Goiás has around 7,000 residents and yet hosts a dining scene shaped by decades of organic farmers, quilombola communities, and health-conscious newcomers. Cerrado cuisine is the star: the biome's native fruits (pequi, cagaita, jenipapo, baru) appear in everything from rice dishes to cocktails.
Baru nut
Native nut, similar to cashew. Roasted, in granola or chocolate.
Pequi
Spiky yellow fruit with a rich, pungent flavour. Used in rice, stews and ice cream.
Cagaita juice
Tart citrusy Cerrado berry. Makes an incredible caipirinha.
