Eating and Drinking in Brazil
Brazilians eat a lot, but especially at night, where many people usually go to dinner at restaurants and have a good time with friends or couples. A typical and popular dish is the Brazilian "Feijoada, a stew consisting of meat and several varieties of sausage, bacon and beans. Another popular specialty is "Churrasco".
The vegetable dishes are rather scarce, but the Brazilians get vitamins in the so-called "Lanchonetas", are small bars that are found in every corner, and fruit juices are freshly squeezed. Try something exotic like acerola fruit juice or if you prefer a cocktail try a delicious caipirinha.
In Salvador da Bahia a good dish to try is the cuisine of the Bay, a delicious combination of the influence of different cultures.
We recommend the restaurant "Senac", in the historic center. There is a buffet with over 60 different dishes all of them typical of the region of Bahia, but you can also taste delicious desserts.
