58. Lasai.

Adding to the thread:

Salvador: Definitely the SENAC buffet. SENAC is a cooking and hospitality school in Pelo. Everyday for lunch they serve a huge buffet, about 15-20 entrees, all Bahian food. At 20 USD, its an absolute steal. You can sample EVERYTHING that you have read about, and the best version of it. Come hungry.

Manaus: Tabaqui the Banda. Its in the main Teatro square. Its the best of a relatively poor dining scene in Manaus. You can get the house specialty. Grilled half Tambaqui fish, which will easily feed two.

I have tried a few of the must do restaurants in SP such as DOM, Mani, Evvai and so forth and they are good but I don't know if I will keep repeating them. Tasting menus are interesting but they don't fill me up so I like these places to have a good sit down meal.

Really good Thai (the pastel do Camaro is a must) https://maps.app.goo.gl/339AGX78Afd2HzRq9?g_st=ic.

Pizza https://maps.app.goo.gl/LVKGgfWpB3wjs2Zv7?g_st=ic.

Another good pizza https://maps.app.goo.gl/9PimSXShXue6JquX6?g_st=ic.

Best omakase I have had so far https://maps.app.goo.gl/xPWAygXdR8vueTLX9?g_st=ic.

Italian https://maps.app.goo.gl/3h2vEFbWf3JV3xuAA?g_st=ic.

Seafood https://maps.app.goo.gl/F9prBGyH5xf2zBPV7?g_st=ic.

Feijoado https://maps.app.goo.gl/zFoMfisWd2TytWQN7?g_st=ic.

Cool bars to people watch.

In your fridge, in Brazil, at all times keep: ribs, shrimp, aqua do coco, lemon. (cash? With the bacon, see flight by denzel warshington, kkk?

Get the ribs and shrimp from a local feira (food market on streets, usually weekly, someone post a link?

[Rio Bob]

It's not high class like the other places listed but there again, neither am I but I love the pernil sandwiches at Cervantes.

Cervantes definitely deserves a mention, it's classic especially the filet with cheese and pineapple or ham cheese and pineapple.

Steak
Cruzeiro's Bar serves steaks like what we have in the US. It's not rodizio but they serve quality Brazilian cut meat.

Sandwich
Bar e Lanches Estado, Pernil, 24 hours place.
Ponto Chic Perdizes, Bauru.

I've eaten at many Fogo de Chaos all over the states for the last 30 years and the quality (from service to food) has consistently degraded over that time. I think it roughly corresponds to when the business was sold by the founders. So I'm wondering two things, are they any better on their home turf and are there better options for rodizio style meat?

Don't care about the money, want the best experience.

[Foolish]

If staying in Moema, I enjoyed trying this Brazilian / American (yes you read that right), casual spot Sancto Churrasco, they do both styles.

Seems like differing opinions on this, but I really liked Casa do Porco in the downtown area (lots of vagrants though).
