As part of our soft pairing, Chá Mate offers a refined and unexpected match at the table: a traditional Brazilian infusion made from toasted “erva mate” leaves. Aromatic, slightly bitter, earthy and with a refreshing finish.

When paired with our black beans dish, it works as a natural counterbalance. The result is a harmonious pairing that brings comfort and is deeply rooted in Brazilian food culture.

Have you tried?

With a heart full of gratitude, I have some news to share. After nine beautiful years in the Netherlands, my family and I are embarking on a new chapter and moving back to Brazil. This means that, soon, ELO will be closing its doors.

ELO was born from a dream to change how we experience food. After years in professional kitchens, I knew cooking didn’t have to be defined by stress and waste. I believed that at its core, cooking is an act of love.

Looking back, we achieved that mission. Together, we brought the vibrant flavors of Brazil to Amsterdam, but more importantly, we created a community.

The name “ELO” means “link” or “bond” in Portuguese. My greatest hope is that you remember us not just for the food, but for that feeling of connection. Food is memory, it’s history, it’s the way we connect to the land and to each other.

Our deepest thanks to our incredible customers who filled the room with laughter, to our trusted suppliers who believed in our vision, and to the friends who became family: Thank you.

We have a few weeks left! We would love to see you one last time. Come share a meal, raise a glass, and celebrate the beautiful bond we built together.

📍 Last Service: 16th April, 2026.

Let’s make these last weeks unforgettable.

Com amor,
Renata

Turning tomatoes full circle: introducing our zero-waste 🍅tomato butter 🍅

This rich, flavorful spread starts where our other dishes end. We take the leftover tomatoes from our kitchen, the peels, the pulp, the trimmings and gently dry them into a vibrant tomato powder. This process concentrates their sweet, umami-rich flavor. We then blend this sun-kissed powder into creamy, cultured butter, creating a condiment that’s bursting with the essence of tomato and a philosophy we hold dear.

This butter is more than just delicious. It’s a direct result of our commitment to a zero-waste kitchen. For us, valuing ingredients means finding creative and delicious ways to use everything, honoring the entire journey from farm to table.
It’s our way of creating not just conscious dishes, but a more thoughtful food system, one spoonful at a time.

What many Brazilians know as a beloved snack actually was born from a happy accident created by Chef Rodrigo Oliveira at Mocotó, a legendary restaurant in São Paulo.

It reveals an unexpected contrast: crisp on the outside and soft inside, becoming a classic: familiar, comforting, deeply rooted in Brazilian food culture.

Here in Amsterdam, we bring this story to the table honoring its origins while letting it speak a new language.

Come try at Elo!

You know Canja, Brazil’s iconic chicken and rice soup that’s like a warm hug for the soul?
At Elo Food Base, we took this beloved classic and gave it a bright, aromatic twist!

Traditional Canja is the ultimate remedy simmered with chicken, rice, carrots, and herbs. It’s the taste of home, nostalgia, and care passed down through generations.

Our Twist: Mushroom & Lemongrass. We’ve infused our version with the vibrant essence of capim limão.
This fragrant herb adds a refreshing citrus note that lifts the soup, balancing its richness with a subtle, uplifting zing.

Come try at Elo 🍲

At ELO, we cook to connect.

Food is more than fuel: it’s memory, it’s story - it’s how we remember we belong to something greater than ourselves. Food is the way we connect to each other, our history, and our environment.

Our ingredients connect us to the land and the people who grow them. Our recipes connect us to our cultural history and the people who came before. And the dinner table connects us to each other.

This is our last week of 2025! Next week we are on vacations to be with our family and friends!

Come enjoy the feeling of connecting with us this last week of this year!
Cheers! 🥂

Flo Schepers: Life’s Playgrounds at ELO

This season, ELO’s walls are home to the work of Flo Schepers (.graph), an artist whose photography explores the playgrounds of life. Those spaces where we connect, reflect, and transform.

The exhibition invites us to see life’s playgrounds not just as places, but as moments. From childhood scenes of discovery and uncertainty to the quiet rituals of adulthood, Flo’s lens captures the beauty of transformation. Her photographs, taken during her travels through Africa, reveal hidden playgrounds where life unfolds in both grand ceremonies and the smallest, everyday gestures.

Flo’s perspective is shaped by her upbringing in Kenya, where her passion for storytelling through photography began. Today, she balances her creative work with her role in impact investing in Amsterdam, continuing to explore the intersections of people, places, and purpose.

We’re honored to share Flo’s work with you, alongside our new menu. Her art, much like our food, is a celebration of connection and the beauty found in life’s rhythms.

Visit www.floschepers.com to learn more about her work, or experience it here at ELO, where her photographs set the stage for this season’s culinary journey.

Unfiltered: A Menu Built on Connections

As we say goodbye to Unfiltered, we reflect on what defines ELO: connections. Every menu is a celebration of the people, stories, and efforts behind each dish. A network of passionate individuals who bring their unique contributions to the table.

A heartfelt thank you to Giuli, Minky, Susana and Larissa, who are always there, giving all their love and ensuring that everything run perfectly every day. And to Laurens that spent this season with us, sharpening our knives.

We also want to thank our loyal guests, who return season after season and have become friends along the way. Your trust and continued support mean the world to us and inspire us to keep creating unforgettable experiences.

This menu wouldn’t have been possible without our incredible partners:

🍷 – Wine pairings that perfectly complemented each dish, elevating the entire dining experience
🌱 .official – Microgreens that brought us closer to sustainability.
🎨 .art / .art – A mother-daughter duo whose work did more than decorate our walls; it told a powerful story of family, connection, and the unique beauty that blossoms from generational bonds
🍄 –The microbiologist who cultivates this gorgeous mushroom organically, just steps from our kitchen. He proves that local partnerships can blossom into a vibrant, circular ecosystem
🥥 – Fresh coconuts and oysters delivered weekly with care
🧀 – Artisanal cheeses that became part of Elo’s special menu and strengthened our local partnerships.
📸 – Captured the heart of this menu
🌿 – For gifting us a garden that will soon host parties and grow herbs, vegetables, and flowers.

At ELO, we believe in an evolving journey and the co-creation of a fair and sustainable food system.

To all our partners, guests, and the ELO family: thank you for being part of this story 🤍

With love and gratitude,
Renata
