How about leaving Rio's Southern Zone and making a journey to colonial Brazil? Visit the Old Cathedral and stand in awe of the rococo-style gilded carving in a building that was the city's cathedral until 1976. After a touch of culture and with your appetite duly stimulated, sit down at a table in this Italian restaurant and enjoy the ravioli alla gastone (green and white ravioli stuffed with ricotta, veal and a mushroom sauce) or opt for the chef's suggestion (a daily changing set price meal).
