Editorial Review

Protein power marks award-winning churrascaria, whose cooking tradition comes from the Brazilian BBQ capital of Rio Grande de Sul. Waiters take turns doling out fresh picanha and unidentified, juicy cuts of meat to wide-eyed families and 9-to-5ers in upscale atmosphere. Payingthe highest price for all-you-can-eat meat in the city gets you service so first class they stop at wiping the grease off your chin. Separate areas from bar and wine cellar to dining room keep a sense of organization even if things on your plate aren’t. Cow-sized paintings of countryside scenes decorate stone walls and crisscross wood-beam ceilings give it a home-on-the-ranch experience. Eat till the cows come home.
