Cantina do Délio at the Bom Gourmet Festival: the 2018 and 2019 menus
Long before the Best Italian in Curitiba title, the Cantina was already a fixture at the city’s biggest food festival. Look back at the menus.
From the house archive: covers the 2018 and 2019 editions. Prices and dates are those of the time.
The Bom Gourmet Festival, run by Gazeta do Povo, is Curitiba’s biggest food festival. Cantina do Délio has taken part for years, and the relationship has only grown: in 2026, the house won the Bom Gourmet Award for Best Italian in Curitiba and returned to the festival with three-course menus from R$ 84.
The formula is always the same: starter, main course and dessert at a special price, with different menus at lunch and dinner. Look back at what the Cantina served across three editions.
