The best Bahian buffet in town. The cooking school SENAC spreads a tempting array of regional dishes, including several varieties of seafood, moqueca (fish stew), and traditional desserts. The impressive buffet tipico (traditional Bahian food) is on the top floor, not to be confused with the more general street-level buffet a quilo, which is also good for a quick lunch.
