  • Brazilian Steakhouse

    There's a number of these various steakhouses cropping up across the country, not sure if there's a national chain per se, but if you haven't been to one, it's like a Atkiners dream.

    They can be a little pricey, but usually have different lunch prices which are much more economical.

    Basically, they have a wonderful salad bar, sometimes with seafood/sushi, but often with a variety of different veggie dishes that must be uniquely Brazilian.

    But the best part is the meat.

    Servers come around to your tables with meat on spits and carve off pieces for you to eat. Sirloin, pork, ribs, lamb, chicken, filet mignon.... very tasty and it's all you can eat!!! You are typically given a card that is red on one side, green on the other to leave out on your table. Green means keep coming to the table for meat, red means stop. If you like a variety of meat, you will definitely get your fill.

    Mmmm... my mouth is already watering thinking about how wonderful it was.

      We have 2 here in Miami. I love them. And yes, they are a little pricey so we go for special occasions.

          I saw that on "A Cook's Tour" on the Food Network! Tony was in Brazil and the guy took him to one of these places....I was salivating the whole time!

          Anyone ever watch "A Cook's Tour"? I like Tony Bordain, my ex-gf even got me a signed copy of his book...LOL

            These places are awesome!!. I don't know what they marinate the meat with, but from the taste, it seems to be herbs and spices. The meat's juices are too good to be covered up with a sauce.
