Sal Grosso

My wife and I went to Churrascaria Sal Grosso for lunch. This is one of those Brazilian steak places that have become so popular in the last few years. Dinner is prohibitively expensive ($39), but lunch is slightly more manageable. The format is all you can eat, with the waiters coming to your table with skewers of meat. We had
  • Picanha (Rump Roast)
  • Filet Mignon
  • Filet Mignon wrapped in bacon
  • Alcatra (Top Sirloin)
  • Fraldinha (Flap Steak)
  • Costela de Boi (Beef Ribs)
  • Chicken Breast wrapped in bacon
  • Marinated chicken wings
  • Lamb Chops
  • Leg of Lamb
  • Pork Loin
  • Pork Ribs

To round out our meal, we had a nice Brazilian wine (Miolo Cabernet Sauvignon) and carolinas (a dessert made consisting of puff pastries filled with vanilla ice cream and covered in chocolate sauce) for dessert. An excellent experience. Everyone should do this once in a while.
