SubAstor
Speakeasy under the command of Italian Fábio La Pietra, Sub, as it is affectionately called, has signature drinks inspired by Brazilian ingredients as its strong point. One of them is the butiá sour (gin, Lillet blanc, butiá, coconut syrup, pasteurized egg white and puxuri, R$46). The house also receives visits from renowned bartenders from other places in Brazil and around the world. To keep your stomach from feeling empty, the kitchen serves suggestions such as croquettes, pastries and salmon cured in gin and beetroot, served with goat cheese and toast (R$53). The bar has three units in the capital of São Paulo, the first opened in 2009, below the Astor bar in Vila Madalena

With a renewed menu in 2023, called Duality #2, it has ten signature drinks. The creations explore five ingredients, which are used under different techniques. Yuzu, a citrus fruit of Chinese origin, for example, appears in the Kamikaze drink (R$57), which also contains bourbon, amaro and honey, resulting in a drink with bitter notes. It is also combined with vodka, two types of sherry and sake in the Terubozo (R$45), a sweeter and more refreshing cocktail. To accompany the drink, there are 11 portion options to share, such as pork gyoza (R$45), fried chicken wings (R$46) and crab croquette (R$48). Sandwiches, noodles and a creamy chocolate pie with creme anglaise (R$38) add to the menu.
