4 CARAVELAS

Located in Salvador, 4 CARAVELAS serves as a bridge between traditional Bahian heritage and contemporary mixology. The culinary profile is defined by the aromatic presence of dendê oil, which lends a characteristic golden hue and nutty fragrance to the signature acarajé. These black-eyed pea fritters are deep-fried to achieve a shatteringly crisp exterior while maintaining a light, airy texture within, typically stuffed with savory vatapá and dried shrimp. The moqueca is another standout, prepared with marinated local fish slow-simmered in coconut milk and traditional spices to achieve a perfect flavor balance. Presentation is unpretentious yet colorful, reflecting the soul of Bahia. The beverage program features innovative caipirinhas infused with regional fruits like graviola and jabuticaba. It is a sensory journey where the heat of the kitchen meets the cooling precision of clarified botanical infusions, offering a holistic experience of Afro-Brazilian culinary identity.
