| so please | | | | couldn't believe the amount of |
| forgive me for any mistakes, because english is | | | | food and the quality of the food. Everything is |
| not my first language, but I'll | | | | delicius. Of course quality |
| try my best to comply with all the grammar | | | | will vary from place to place, and even how |
| rules.Being an engineer from Brazil, I wanna start | | | | many different kinds of meats they |
| telling you about the brazilian | | | | will serve, but the experience is similar.In San |
| cuisine and the brazilian restaurants available in | | | | Diego, there is two different Brazilian BBQ |
| San Diego.One of the most tradicitional kind of | | | | restaurants, both in downtown |
| restaurant/cuisine in Brazil, is what | | | | and actually, very close to each other.One is |
| we call "churrascaria", which would be a bbq | | | | called Rei do Gado, or the king of the cows. It's a |
| restaurant, but different | | | | good restaurant, |
| than anything you can imagine, if you don't know | | | | It's been in business for a while now and on a |
| how it is yet.Of course we're talking meat here, | | | | saturday night you'll need reservations. |
| so if you're a vegetarian I apologize, but | | | | Prices can be expensive for a saturday night, |
| It's not going to be a good choice for you. The | | | | around $35 per person. One great |
| Brazilian bbq steakhouse, whatever | | | | tip is to go for a weekday lunch special, that |

| experience, specially if you never | | | | better deal. But don't get me wrong, It's worth it |
| tried.So what is it, exactly?It starts with a salad | | | | every dollar. Rei do Gado |
| bar and a all you can eat buffet that includes | | | | is located at 939 Fourth Avenue, in downtown |
| most | | | | San Diego, on the famous Gaslamp |
| tradicional dishes from Brazil. That would be more | | | | Quarter. The zipcode is 92101 if you wanna da a |
| than enough, but don't let | | | | map search.The other great choice is Samba Grill |
| that fool you, the fun is yet to begin.At your | | | | Churrascaria, also in downtown, and like |
| table, there is a 'sign' with two sides, one red and | | | | they like to call, It's an endless parade of |
| one green. You | | | | skewered meat! Samba Grill headquarter |
| use that to show the servers that you "want | | | | is in Salt Lake City, and the San Diego location is |
| meat" when the green side | | | | at 514, Horton Plaza, Gaslamp |
| is up or red, if you're not up to it. The servers | | | | Quaters, Downtown San Diego (92101). Yes, it's |
