Brazilian Food and Drink

We were in Brazil during March last year so had the pleasure of indulging in Brazilian food and drink. One of the things we loved was the fact that there are places where you can buy food by the kilo and sit down and eat it there. It's like a buffet where you can pile whatever you like onto your plate, it then gets weighed and you are charged for it. And since many of the things on display were new to us, we certainly indulged and experimented.

Almost a year later I have finally got around to creating some pages about typical food from Brazil and also another about typical drinks from there.
You can find them at: Typical Brazilan Food and Typical Brazilian Drinks.

Keep an eye for the dish made from alligator meat and a drink called Caju Amigo: "The Friendly Cashew"

One of my favourite things about travelling is experimenting the local food. Fortunately I have an iron stomach so I can eat from street stands or buy from vendores walking around offering their wares. Eating where the locals eat is such an important part of the experience.



Something we bought at a stand on the street called Agua de Coco (Coconut Water). The coconut was cut open with a mini machete in front of us. It was yummy!
