Marcelo De
Oliveira is a sentimental guy.
He is shy when the subject is
himself, and tends to understate
his achievements. Marcelo
learned to prepare every meal as
a special treat for guests not
in a fancy culinary school but
in his mother's Sao Paulo
kitchen. Marcelo describes the
restaurant's cuisine as comfort
food.
"Cooking is a way that you can
pretty much touch people." "A
good meal can make a person
smile."
