About Mel
01 · Who is Mel

From Curitiba to Massachusetts, Le Cordon Bleu-trained, sharing what I love & what I've tested.

I left Curitiba in my twenties. Nearly two decades in Boston later — a Le Cordon Bleu diploma, a monthly column in O Globo, years as founder of Mel Shopper, and before all that, a fashion and lifestyle reporter in Brazil.

At melbiscotto.com you'll find what fits into real life — practical recipes, forty-minute workouts, Trader Joe's finds, travel outfits, and the honest chronicle of returning to Brazil.

"Your Brazilian friend living in the US
who tells you everything — no filter."
