Rio Hotel Onlines Review

So what if Leblon has a higher than average number of dessert shops? This is one we couldn't leave out. Long a mainstay of Leblon, German pastry maker Kurt passed away a few years ago but his legacy (and treats) live on. Now in the hands of Kurt's grandsons (who obviously inherited the sweet gene; they run the pastry shop The Bakers), this tiny shop in Leblon remains one of the best places in town to go for an apfel strude, pecan pie, or apricot cake. A famous Kurt creation is the "bee sting" (picada de abelha), a chocolate cake the recipe of which is a closely guarded family secret.
