Miss Favela is a Brazilian botequim (bistro) in Brooklyn that has fashioned itself to the Rio de Janeiro bar décor concept. Both artistic and nostalgic, the menu reflects the charm of the Brazilian culture. For some authentic starters consider the pao de queijo which is a cheese bread or the pastel de queijo which is a fried dough that is stuffed with cheese. The croquettes are another favorite with options including chicken, codfish and rice.
Brunch or dinner at Miss Favela includes more authentic choices. At brunch try one of the open omelets filled with various choices such as bananas, beef jerky, hearts of palm, codfish or fried yucca. Main courses include bife acebolado, picadinho a carioca and xinxim de galinha. Be sure to ask about the specials at Miss Favela including live band events.

Dropped by here for a quick round of drinks yesterday, wanted to check the place and atmosphere out based on recommendation. There were at least 5 empty tables, not packed at all. We went to the bar, ordered two caipirinhas and clearly communicated that we are just doing a round and will be on our way in 10-15 minutes.
The obnoxious host, who was coked out of his mind, got visibility upset once we sat at one of the empty tables. He was acting awkward and fidgety and he went in out of his way to hover around us like a child. All within the first five minutes of an entrance.
We get our drinks, sit down at one of the empty tables and this clown legit grabs the first person that walked in and starts convincing him into getting the table we just sat down on. Not just any table, he has to get this table where we are sitting. It was so bizarre. The guy he convinced to take our table started to apologize to us while the host ran in the back as I tried to make eye contact with him.
I was kind of taken back at first, but after realizing that the host was wearing a 'man bun' that was almost as tall as him, I felt rather sad for him and really hope he can lay off the drugs and find a proper barber.
