Home to some of the best beaches in the world, the northeast city of Maceió is where you'll find incredible seafood and a plethora of deep-fried street food bites. See what Marcello Tully discovered during his time there.

Sitting at the entrance to the Amazon rainforest, Manaus is a city full of exotic produce. Acai, papaya, manioc flour and plenty of other little-known vegetables and fruits are served alongside the many different freshwater fish caught from the river. Get to know more about it with Marcello's guide.

The vast majority of tourists visiting Brazil spend their time in Rio de Janiero, the fun-loving seaside city where carnival culture reigns supreme. Being one of the most multicultural parts of the country is reflected in the food, be it fine dining or bought on the street, and the flavours are as bright and zingy as the city's world-famous carnival.

Brazil's most southern state borders Argentina, and the gaucho (cowboy) way of life means plenty of barbecued meats are on offer (along with some of Brazil's best wines). Marcello Tully explores the local food scene and recounts a trip he took to the region as a child.
