So I am not only a chef but I also love great food and there is not to many places you can lick your figers too when you eat great food. 15 years after their first restaurant open, the food at Bossa Nova restaurants chain is still amazing; still very tasting and great.
There are now 4 Bossa Nova restaurants and the 5th is on its way. Each restaurant is unique by there architecture and ambiance. My love affair with this wonderful food started when the flag ship on Robertson Blvd in the city of West Hollywood opened. I have met the two owners Aurelio and Francisco right when they have finished to building there wooden tables. Than I brought all my friends and we became a first group of supporters. To thank me they have created dessert plate on my name YORAM SPECIAL which became a hit on the menu. To this day we are still really excited each time we eat there.

From the beginning William Paz is a part of the adventure and today he is the executive chef and together with chef owner Francisco he is one responsible of the menu. The ingredients are always fresh and food is cooked home made style. Big portion plates, autentic home made with the same consistency for all those years. Each time I eat there I sill get surprised.
The menu is huge and I only choose to mention a few items. Also in all Bossa Nova restaurant they have a pizza ovens, and the recipes are from Brazil. Robertson Blvd. location is the only one that does not have a pizza oven.

On the Menu: Excelent choice of pastas with great variety of sauces. I love the Edgar Salad which is made of shrimps, lettuce, goat cheese and sun dried tomatoes, with a home made dressing. Most salads come with a choice of chicken or shrimps. Great lamb meet, stakes and fish, and a good selection of beer and wines. Amazing appetizers and desserts. On the wine list I picked the white Zinfandel and the Chardonnay Pino Noir by Close du bois, the collection of Merlots is very good too. Australian Ale brazilian beer and soft drinks are available too. You can get wines by the glass - average cost is between 7 to 12 dollars and the bottles are between 6 and 45 dollars.
