From region to region, and state to state, the cuisine of Brazil is as varied and diverse as it is large. After experiencing the delectable cuisine of the Pantanal and Bonito in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil during our recent trip there, we wanted to bring you a delicious "taste" of the region to share our culinary journey with you until you make the trip there yourself. From the tropical fruit of guavira, jabouticaba to sorvete assado, ice cream topped with fruit salad, covered with marshmallow topping that is then baked, to the exotic tastes of jacare (alligator), and freshwater fish of pacu, piranha, tiraira,and more. Bom apetite!

Important Tips for Bonito and Pantanal Bonito is focused on eco-tourism and as such they only allow a certain number of visitors to eco sites each day. Be sure to book your tours well in advance to not miss out. For Water Sports (snorkeling), the sites request that you not use sunscreen, tanning lotions, or insect repellent to help keep the waters pristine. Going hiking in the woods? Wear light colored clothing as dark colored clothing attracts mosquitos! There are no ATMs, only banks: Banco do Brasil, Bradesco, Caixa Economica and Sicredi, so plan accordingly. Some small restaurants accept cash only. Shops stay open late in Bonito usually until around 10:00 pm and most accept credit cards.
