Carioca's vibrant modern food reflects the spectacular style of their icon Carmen Miranda. The all-day breakfast maize muffins showcase an array of toppings, ranging from the Copacabana (poached egg, pulled braised beef, fried plantain, black bean stew and sour cream); to the spicy Ipanema (pan-fried chorizo slices, capers, sun-dried tomato, ripe avocado, poached egg and salsa verde); and new vegetarian Samba (marinated grilled vegetables, black beans, avocado, poached egg, crispy sweet potato and roast aubergine purée).

The evening offering at Carioca's Rio streetfood unit at Boxpark Croydon includes the Favela Cantalago (pulled braised beef slow-cooked with bell peppers, onions and spices, topped with banana and bacon farofa plus white cabbage slaw on a fried cassava rosti); Brazilian-style burger alternative The Pele (melt-in-your-mouth cuts of Jacob's Ladder beef ribs, churrasco sauce, plus chicken, pineapple and red cabbage slaw, all topped with Gloucester cheese, bacon, crispy onion and a fried egg in a brioche bun); Feijoada with four different meat cuts; as well as its vegetarian counterpart The Redeemer (smoky bell peppers, shallot onions and spices, carrot, leek, squash and black beans, served with rice, fried plantain and white cabbage, apple and pineapple slaw).

Carioca's owner Maurilio Goncalves said: “We are very excited to be part of the lineup opening at Boxpark Croydon alongside so many other fantastic traders. We can't wait to give everyone a taste of true Brazil's amazing flavours, bright colours, lively atmosphere and warm hospitality!”
