Ya know, depending on what board you are on and what, er, orientation you are, the title has a completely different meaning.

here in Brazil "eat" someone has this particular meaning :laughing7:

What did you eat Marko and Luke? Feijoada?

 

[m4rk0]

we had rice, beans, feijoada and farofa and looots of meats!
(not sure which the feijoada was... what does it look like?)
they served the regional foods of Escondidinho and Muqueca.

we forgot to order the Guarana, but we will go back later for Caipirinhas

 

[Nando Vallart]

Ohh escondidinho!!!!   I love it!!!! It's a food from the northeast of brazil, the meat is dry on the sun and them they put purée of potatoes or cassava above it (escondidinho means "little hide"*)

Feijoada is a improved receipt from the food they served to the slaves here, now it's done with black beans and some sausages, dry meat, pig's ribs and other parts of it that I'm not sure the name, probably loin or chump chops... Some guys put the ears, the feet, the tail and some others things, usually are the people on lower classes... The food they made to slaves was just the beans with the viscera of the pig.

Farofa can be made from either corn or cassava (or both, the best in my opnion), it's a powder of it, with bacon, some green things (chive, etc) lovely!

Muqueca I can't explain very nice, as I don't eat Crabs or fish...

Was the lunch expensive????
These are very traditional brazilian food! Feijoada is very much done on birthdays and when the whole family meetings

EDIT: * could be also lightly hide...

 

[m4rk0]

hmmm nice it was really good! and it was cheap-ish too
the weird thing was that you could actually weigh your food at the end of the buffet and pay per the pound.  ($6 per pound) never seen that before. I didn't bother with that and paid $10 to eat all you can.. hehe

they also had the Rodizio for lunch - I will try that next week!!!

 

[Soylent]

Nando it was sooo good. You would have loved it heh

That's maybe the most brilliant thing I've ever heard.

Instant food, lots of choices, and only as expensive as you'd like.

 

[bpmorton777]

goes good with fava beans and a nice chianti

This is completely normal here, many and many places make it, you pay for the weight...

Not so many make it, but it's nice too!

 

[Nando Vallart]

Nando it was sooo good. You would have loved it heh

Surely :glasses9:
Is the owner a brazilian?

Dammit! Now I feel left out

 

[m4rk0]

Hey Nando, we ate some more nando food today, and I was wondering what the hell the farofa is for? it's dry and crumbley.. do you eat it with something else?
oh everything else was fantastic! and now I will drink the Guarana Antarctica which I bought in their little store on the way out

 

[Soylent]

I got one too.. the guarana antartica, I've been enjoying it.. ITS SO GOOD!  :hello2:
