MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

One Star: High quality cooking

If you’re looking for an Asian dining experience close to Copacabana beach, make sure you book a table at Mee, an excellent option within the walls of the “Copa” (Copacabana Palace hotel). In this elegant restaurant where modernity and exoticism combine together harmoniously, the focus is on pan-Asian fusion cuisine that takes the tastebuds on a gastronomic journey to discover the flavours of Thailand, Malaysia, Cambodia, Japan, Singapore etc. Chef Alberto Morisawa was born in São Paulo but his family origins are in Madara Shima (Nagasaki, Japan), hence the dominant influence of Japanese cooking in his highly sophisticated dishes, many of which are served raw. The à la carte, teeming with nigiris, temakis, sashimi and dumplings, is complemented by interesting tasting menus (these include an Omakase option as well as a vegetarian menu). The paintings on the walls by Belgian artist Christian Develter, inspired by the tattooed faces of women from the Chin ethnic group in Myanmar, are truly spectacular!
