Walking Buffet and other observations in Brazil
The grill was anything but boring. It is a type of special Brazilian restaurant called a Churrascaria. It’s sort of a buffet, except that the food comes to you instead of you walking around filling your place. Waiters walk around with a metal spike on which a piece of meat is presented. At your table, you have a little indicator that you can set to determine if you want the waiter to offer you some meat or if you already have enough. If you want to try the meat out, the waiter will slice off a piece right there on the spot. Many of the meats are various parts of the beef, but they also had porc, lamb and chicken among others.
The rest of the week was very relaxed. I found a souvenir store in a nearby shopping mall tuesday night where I was able to find souvenir to fulfill most of the requests that I had. I also found a nice dress for Évelyne at a decent price (most shops with baby clothes that I first saw had horribly high prices. I can’t wait to fly back home friday night.
