Matchbook Monday: A Little Brazil in Miami

Since I’m in Miami, it’s probably no surprise that today’s matchbook comes from one of the many international restaurants here in this international city.  Texas de Brazil has locations in other states as well, but given wonderful mix of flavors here in this city, it fits right at home in Miami

texasdebrazilchurrascariainmiami Matchbook Monday:  A Little Brazil in Miami Texas de Brazil is a churrascaria restaurant – a special heaven for meat lovers!

Based on a concept from the Gauchos (South American cowboys), the churrascaria provides a variety of meats roasted on an open pit.  Offered on skewers, and carved tableside, the grilled meat is accompanied by salads, vegetables, rice, beans, and other side dishes.

Want to try a little sirloin, they’ll carve you off a slice.  Maybe a bit of new york?  Sure, you can have that too.  With some carefully structured taste testing, you’ll enjoy the subtle differences between the taste of the different cuts of this Angus beer.  Chicken, lamb, pork, and sausage are also served.

To really get in the Brazilian mood, try a Caipirinha, a classic Brazilian cocktail made of Cachaca (a sugar cane rum), sugar, lime, and crushed ice.  Refreshingly delicious!

Dinner is one-priced, and does not include drinks, alcohol, dessert, tax or gratuity.  Children aged 7-12 are half price, and children 6 and under dine FREE.

Texas de Brazil is located at The Dolphin Mall, 11401 NW 12th Street, Suite 514 in Miami.  It is open for lunch Monday through Friday, and for dinner daily.  Brunch is available on weekends.
