Locally sourced, internationally inspired, organic and delicious. Chris and Thais have been travelling, eating and working in restaurants for 13 years. In 2013 they opened Clandestino, a small hand designed trailer parked at the confluence of river and sea at the colonial town of Paraty in Brazil. Barbarian also comes from the marriage of a Brazilian and an Alaska man. To the classics, we add our international eating experience and fuse Barbarian eating from around the globe with local ingredients. Owned by

Our grill man, the barbarian himself. Loves to cook and eat with hands. Was also the front man for Clandestino, the homemade burger trailer in Paraty, Brazil
Thais Oliveira
The backbone. The cook, admin, purchase, finance, dreamer and pusher. Was also the server and hidden force behind Clandestino.
