With branches in Flamengo, Ipanema and Barra, Vanilla Caffè brings a little modernity to the high street cafés of Rio, as well as some excellent snacks. Italian soups, Mediterranean sandwiches and the delicious Margherita quiche tempt those looking to sneak in for just a quick coffee, while the Vaniccino Caffè offering eight different flavours from banana to irish cream and a whipped cream topping caters for the sweet-toothed caffeine freak.
