By Brazil Restaurant Description:
Since 1991, this churrascaria has been feeding South Bay denizens mass quantities of traditional Brazilian food. The walls are lined with colorful paintings and equally vibrant Brazilian music fills the air. There's a fully-loaded salad bar and hot buffet, highlighted by tiny but dense cheese rolls, salty collard greens and beef Stroganoff, plus the weekend-only feijoada---a hearty black bean stew studded with meat. While the buffet is a welcome distraction, charcoal-grilled meats are the real draw. At weekday lunch, five available meats are served tableside: juicy chicken thigh, taut pork sausage, crisp-skinned pork loin, skirt steak and tri-tip. Nights and weekends, additional meats include bland bacon-wrapped turkey cubes, short ribs, and first-rate picanha---juicy, salt-crusted sirloin. Chicken hearts are available by request only. Each table holds a bi-colored wood peg. Green signals more meat. Red means that you have reached your limit. Opt for wines from Brazil and, better still, the national cocktail---the caipirinha, whether traditional, with just limes, or trendy, with strawberry or kiwi. There are also tropical juices in flavors like guava and cashew fruit. If by some miracle you have room for dessert, there's white coconut flan with plum sauce and passion fruit mousse.
