you talking about the places where they bring the slabs of meat out on a huge skewer and slice it off??? churriscura style I believe, might have butchered some spellings there... I love those places...we got two of them right down the street from me...Texas De Brazil and Fogo de Chao...a little pricey...36 bucks or so for dinner, but it is all you can eat...and it aint that nasty Sizzler type stuff!!!

Oh, I love churrascarias as well. I've heard they're becoming very popular outside Brazil, specially in the US. If you like steaks, lamb, pork sausage, chicken, this is the place for you. I can't describe how much food there is to eat, so come hungry. Also there is no ordering, they just keep bringing you food. :D

oh, man. we invent the whole thing and others make money. always the same. we argies don´t have the business vision...
BUT i must admit the "espeto corrido" style (serving with a skewer, not ordering, bringing meat all the time) is an all brazilian invention. if that´s the way they serve you they must be brazilians. we argentinians have a different way to cook the meat and much slower than brazilians do. you´re all invited to eat if you come over. i´m a pretty good meat cooker ![]()

Aww...it ain't all you can eat sushi for about 9 bucks American. Now that's good eating. I really shouldn't speak though, since I haven't been to one of these Brazilian places. Those all you can eat Mongolian grills are tasty too. Damn, I'm hungry now. Frozen burritos time...

yup. you guys hit it on the head! we have 4 around san diego: Rei do Gado (downtown), Roda Vida (Temecula), Samba Steakhouse (Carlsbad. this is the best on ei've been to, though it has the most unoriginal name), and there is one in Pacific Beach but i've never been.
i also went to a Portugese place in Newark, New Jersey that called this skewar-style something like "rodicio." whats the difference? is "rodicio" the cooking style and "churrascaria" the type of establishment?
churrascaria means steackhouse. it is in fact the establishment. rodizio (correct me if i´m wrong, my brazilian friends) is not so much about the way it´s cooked but more about the way they serve it. people all around the establishment walking around with skewers and offering to the clients. a sort of "all you can eat" way mixtured with "no-ordering" way and with meat as the main character.
funny how this thread became a chat about steakhouses ![]()
we should call it: Listen to the Silence-Eat a bunch of Meat!

no. at least not down here. churrasco is the word that describes "meat cooked on a gridiron". in brazil churrasco has the same meaning of barbecue or the argentinian word "asado"

What a strange thread.
I eat churrasco almost every day, I'm trying to stop living before completing 30 years. But, as I quit smoking, I'll probably get to 35.
After all, I'm in a land of meat.
