Rio's kosher food sits in Copacabana and Leblon, around two Chabad houses. Shaq Shuq is meat inside the CIB club on Barata Ribeiro. Sushinharia is dairy sushi near the beach. In Leblon, Chabad's second floor does takeout and Shabbat boxes. No daily kosher hotel kitchen. For Shabbat on foot, sleep in Copacabana near Siqueira Campos, for Shaq Shuq and Chabad. Book Shabbat meals on Chabad WhatsApp. Ignore old names like Shelanu — they are off the current list.
