Exploring Earth Cuisine, Monday 5th period
"Welcome back," Hannibal greeted them. "I'm pleased to see you all again. Today we will be journeying to South America - we are currently in North America, so as you can imagine, this involves going south significantly.
"Brazil, as the US, is a country of immigrants mixed with the native residents. Predominantly those immigrants were from Portugal, Spain, and Italy in southwest Europe. There are different cuisines in different areas, depending upon its history and geography; we will be experiencing southern Brazilian food."
He waved them through to a city street where the weather was lovely and the city was...well, a nice area in a big city. The restaurant had a concrete front with large windows and was nicely appointed.
"Fogo de Chão is one of the restaurants that grew out of churrasco, the local equivalent of barbeque. You will find a lavish bar of side foods, which are quite enough to satisfy those of you who may not be interested in meat. There are also a fine selection of desserts."
He spoke to the host, who led them to a table. "However, the main attraction is the meat, or rather meats, which they will bring to you." He nodded toward one of the gaucho-dressed staff walking from table to table with a large skewer of meat. "There are a number of different meats with different spices, and I encourage you to try as many as you like. The local language is predominantly Portuguese, but many will also speak Spanish and some will know English, so we should be fine. I also plan on ordering wine, for those of you who would care to join me."
