Fogo de Chão This
is
a fine dining,
full-service
Brazilian
steakhouse
or Churrascaria. Fogo de Chão currently operates 24 locations in the United States of America and nine locations in Brazil. The name Fogo de Chao means "fire on the ground" and summarizes the traditional gaucho method of roasting meats over an open fire. Lunch and dinner at Fogo de Chão operate the same and consist of the same items. There is an endless salad bar and tableside meat service. Customers can simply wait for their favorite cut of meat to make its rounds. The meal comes in two parts. The first starts at the gourmet salad bar, which offers cured meats, smoked salmon, imported cheeses aged from 1–30 years, vegetables, and salads. The second part of the meal consists of 16 different cuts of beef, pork, chicken, and lamb, served tableside.
Dalva E Dito Opened in 2009, this restaurant is a dream come true for its chef, who always wanted to offer Brazilian cuisine within an international standard. The meat is prepared with an improved technique of cooking at low temperatures, but without losing the charm of what may seem to be the most trivial and traditional flavors of their original recipes .
