Where are great Brazilian churrascarrias?

I went to the great one, Foga de Chao (sp?), in Dallas. I wish they had caught on up here in the NE. I understand there's one in Chicago and another in Atlanta. Unfortunately, I am never in those 2 cities. What other cities are they in?

A different dining experience, if ever I found one.

they lost their liquor license so you can BYOB now.

Churrascaria Plataforma, I think it's called. ChavezspeakstheTruth is also a big fan.

I have yet to hit one in NYC. But I'm gonna!

It is Meat Eater's Nirvana ;)

they carry exotic meats as well

MEAT!!!!! :9

but I've been to the Fogo de Chao in Chicago and it is MUCH better. I will say this for Tucanos - it was more affordable and I really liked the roasted pineapple.

BTW Fogo de Chao has several locations....http://fogodechao.com/locations.htm

Never had better :P

Here in Orlando. Really good stuff.

yeah...

:rofl:

:pals:

Churiscaria Plataforma in NY is excellent, but quite expensive.

We have none

Sniff

and yes, I went to Fogo De Chao in Houston and practically wet myself it was soo good.

has lots of great portugese restaurants that serve churrascaria style. i think brazilian/porutgese are pretty similar due to the influence. there are also brazilian places around too. we used to go for work events when i was working at the airport. not really my thing, i'm not much for meat platters, but everyone else i know loves it. the portugese guys i worked with would get mildly offended that i didn't try everything. most of the best places are in the iron bound section.

one of the places we went was Iberia, they have two locations, one more formal than the other but they are on the same block. last time we were there our table ordered the churascarria, i had to keep politely declining the offerings they brought around while i ate my fish, but the rest of the table ate to the bursting point. beef, pork, chicken, turkey, sausage, lamb, and on and on......
