Visiting a Grocery Store

What do I buy from the grocery store when I visit Rio? I like to visit the @hortifruti market in Leblon near where I stay and pick up breakfast and a few snacks to have on hand.

My Rio must haves include:
🖤Fresh juice like acai or watermelon if they have it
🤍Papaya and any other fruit that looks enticing
🖤Granola for topping the Papaya
🤍Fresh bread, our wonderful individual sized “french bread” that is so delicious in the morning
🖤Queijo Minas, a unique fresh, juicy cheese that I have yet to find a sibling in the US
🤍Favorite snacks like Dadinho de Tapioca and Pao de Queijo
🖤Biscoito Polvilho for a crunchy something
🤍My friend @carla.barros introduced me to this Pacoquinha Zero, which is a great sweet snack for a coffee break or late night
🖤And coffee, of course… I tried @orfeucafes this time and loved it
