Canto da Peixada
Boasting a solid 40 years of activity, Canto da Peixada is a reference restaurant in Manaus as Pope John Paul II ate here during his Brazil visit in the 1980s. This event left such a long-lasting influence that the traditional dishes ordered by the pope more than two decades ago are still the most popular items on the menu. Canto da Peixada and is a definite must for those looking for a more local experience and traditional fish-based recipes.
