Clija Chait, 34-Year-Old From the Northeast, Signs the Menu of the Tesla Diner, Futuristic Drive-In in Los Angeles

A building shaped like a flying saucer, servers in retro outfits, and snacks served while you recharge your Tesla. This is the proposal of the Tesla Diner, the new venture of Elon Musk in Los Angeles. But what few people know is that the menu of California’s most eccentric restaurant has Brazilian seasoning — and northeastern, according to the website Veja.

From Childhood in the Northeast to Stardom in LA

The mind behind the dishes is Clija Chait, a 34-year-old Brazilian who grew up in the Northeast amid scarcity but transformed simplicity into culinary art.

“Turning little into much has always been my talent,” says Clija.

A century-old convent hidden in Tijuca almost went to the ground, but was transformed into a condominium with an open church, preserved ruins, monastic corridors, and a common area that seems straight out of a European film.

Married to renowned restaurateur Bill Chait, she was invited to create the gastronomic concept of the Tesla Diner — a mix of fast food, sophistication, and practicality for drivers.

What’s on the Menu at the Tesla Diner?

The restaurant bets on modern flavors with a casual touch:

✅ Gourmet burritos
✅ Various wraps
✅ Smoked turkey sandwiches
✅ Quick snacks for those on the go

Everything is designed to match the futuristic and functional atmosphere of the space.

More Than a Restaurant: A Journey Through Time and Space

The Tesla Diner goes beyond food. It combines:

Charging stations for electric cars
Outdoor drive-in cinema
Architecture inspired by UFOs and pop culture from the 1950s

It’s an interplanetary experience with flavor — and innovation.

Even with Elon Musk often at the center of controversies, including political ones, Clija prefers to remain neutral:

“Cooking has no party. My focus is on creating experiences, not discourses,” she asserts.

Brazil at the Top of High-Tech Gastronomy

Clija Chait’s journey shows that Brazilian talent can conquer any table — even Elon Musk’s. With creativity, identity, and a pinch of boldness, the Tesla Diner promises to become a global reference.

Brazil at the Top of High-Tech Gastronomy

A village with 115 inhabitants wants new residents: it offers a house, a job, up to 44 thousand euros in benefits, almost free rent, an annual grant of 8 thousand euros for 3 years, and a 20 thousand euro incentive for businesses in the mountains of Italy.

Seven world powers including the US, China, and Russia are spending €22 billion on a reactor in the south of France that aims to confine plasma at 150 million degrees Celsius, ten times the temperature of the Sun’s core, using a magnetic field capable of lifting an entire aircraft carrier.

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

After 16 years and almost 600 prototypes, a Chinese inventor unveils the world’s smallest and cheapest manned jet, at just 3.80 meters long and costing US$7.2 thousand in materials.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

Iceland has accumulated 25 million cubic meters of magma under Svartsengi in eight months, and geologists say that the seventh eruption of Sundhnúkur is expected to open the fissure in the coming weeks.

The United States releases 53.3 million barrels of oil to try to contain the energy crisis and curb global price increases.

China’s neighbor surprises the world by hitting 1,200 seconds in a hypersonic missile engine test and sparking a military alert.

With a 1.6-liter 118 hp engine, a 460-liter trunk, and a 7-inch multimedia system, the Nissan V-Drive 2026 is sold in Mexico starting at 339,900 Mexican pesos and relies on low maintenance costs to win over app drivers, fleet owners, and self-employed professionals.

Fuel cells that use bacteria on the seabed could eliminate expensive battery replacement and keep submerged sensors working for much longer.
