**HELLO!** WE ARE HERE TO INTRODUCE THE **TATAOIM.DAO** **WHAT IS TATAOIM?** First things first, TATAOIM is the way that a 2 year old kid used to say Peanut Butter in Portuguese (_Manteiga de Amendoim_ = Tataoim). TATAOIM is also a vegan restaurant/cultural spot that opened its doors in September of 2021 at the historical neighborhood of _Graça_ in Lisbon, Portugal. Idealized by the singer, songwriter and chef _Barbara Rodrix_ and by the singer, songwriter and communicator _Rods Rodrigues_ to celebrate and grow the vegan culture in Lisbon, but also to connect musicians, poets and any arts supporter in jams with the potential of becoming an audiovisual project. In less than one year we already became part of the lively energy of the city vegan culture and received a bunch of Brazilian and Portuguese artists at our house. Such as Latin Grammy Winner _Paulo Novaes_, Portugal’s Eurovision Winner _Salvador Sobral,_ _MARO_, _Raul Misturada_, _Mari Segura_, _Gabriela Abreu_, _Janeiro_ and more. **About Barbara Rodrix - @barbararodrix** Barbara graduated at the Escola de Música do Estado de São Paulo - Tom Jobim Conservatory (2017), but has a long history with music at home, being daughter of the great Brazilian artist, Zé Rodrix.

Her music with Luiza Possi, ‘Lembra’, travelled the hole Brazilian territory as part of the soundtrack of the soap opera ‘Orgulho e Paixão’ (2018, TV GLOBO). Barbara participated on the biggest Brazilian Musical Festivals and won the first price on FAMPOP Avaré in 2016. During the year of 2018, she travelled with MPB4 - the historical Brazilian vocal group - on a tour throughout Brazil. Since 2021, Barbara puts her passion for the vegan kitchen and culture at TATAOIM, so far the most ambitious project, where she can combine vegan food, music, arts and culture in one place.

Tataoim was scenery for the NEAR funding project from CRIATURA&BERI.DAO. A music video with the music of Barbara Rodrix and Raul Misturada. Next month, the restaurant will be part of another CRIATURA&BERI.DAO project: a Workshop of Creative Writing ‘LIVROFICINA’ with _Giu Frascino_. Our food, music, hospitality and events connect this historical neighborhood as a community and now we want to put this community in a WEB3 ecosystem, building a larger group of creative people. **Rods** and **Barbara** will be the Council for the projects at TATAOIM.DAO, using their several work experiences in favor of putting the vegan and arts community at the crypto and NEAR Ecosystem. Music, photos, fine-arts, food, recipes, podcasts as tools for emerge great minds that we are in contact since we opened our restaurant. **We are here:** [TATAOIM Official Site](https://www.tataoim.pt) [TATAOIM on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/tataoim) [Barbara Rodrix on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/barbararodrix) [Rods Rodrigues on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/rods_rodrigues) TATAOIM.DAO at ASTRO DAO tataoim.sputnik-dao.near ![LOGOFINAL(1)](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/gov_near/original/3X/5/0/509dd8eae45b769481eb26a4f14518f0066b9032.png) ---
