Meet your chef
Thiago Niel cooks the way he eats.
More than 8 years working in sushi restaurants built his foundation in strong traditional technique. Then he started exploring: flavors inspired by Brazilian and American sushi styles, layered onto the classics.
Today he brings that experience directly to clients through private dining, events, and hands-on classes. Relaxed, personal, and high quality, every time.
"Traditional Japanese techniques blended with Brazilian creativity and modern American style, served in the comfort of your home or event."
