Fogo de Chao Brings Food of the Gods to Meat Lovers

August 14, 2009 by Garp

And a kick-butt salad bar for your chick.

Never been to Fogo de Chao? This is how it works. You sit at a table and they bring you meat - all kinds of meat - different cuts, different types, different marinades and seasonings, from rare to well-done, all of it delicious and all of it keeps coming until you turn over a card that says “Pause” or “Mercy”. Chicken, steak, bacon-wrapped everything…

It’s like a fantasy of what heaven’s restaurant should be like, made real.

It’s the first restaurant we’ve ever been to that we’ve dreamt of moving in to.

If meat were vegetables we would abandon our ozone-killing lifestyles for a tree-hugging, soap-free opportunity to work the land in Fogo de Chao’s backyard. We would grow uncomfortable beards and listen to bad music, never call our mothers, and read Roald Dahl short stories.

Instead, we’re going to relax in a leather chair in an artfully-balanced, air-conditioned atmosphere, listening to Slipknot and dearly looking forward to our next visit to Fogo de Chao.

They have great beer too.

The top two finishers in the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Tournament Absolute Divisions will receive Dinner for Two, third place receives Lunch for Two from Fogo de Chao. How awesome is that?
