You’re certainly better off digging your grave BEFORE eating at this establishment. Welcome to Fogo De Chao! By the end of your meal, you will try nearly every part of a cow…filet, rib eye, top sirloin, bottom sirloin, ribs and even seared nipples (just kidding). They also throw in lamb chops and hot tender chicken legs in between.
Be careful of all the side orders and most of all, the notorious bread…I could stuff my pillows with these rolls and sleep like a baby all night long. I don’t know how the make it but it can bring people out of commas. Anyhow, I guess they are trying to fill your stomach up as soon as possible to cut down the meat consumption of guests.
You are given a card with two sides…one green and the other red. If green is facing up, you will shortly be attacked by dozens of men with swords covered in juicy meat. You are served table side and the meat is cut right in front of you. They will always ask how you like your meat cooked and cut you the right piece. If red is up, you are either taking a break or have thrown in the towel.
This is picanha…the signature steak.
Dessert here is an absolute must…molten chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream, no exceptions.
