“Brazil’s most famous novelist, Jorge Amado, was a Bahian, as were many of its greatest musicians – it was Bahia that gave the world samba, capoeira, Carnaval and candomblé. The state has by far the best cuisine in the country, along with many of its best beaches”. © Footprint Brazil 2007, Alex Robinson.
