delicioso, gostoso, saboroso, apetitoso, atraente
Are there any other ways of saying yummy in Portuguese?
When Brazilian restaurant was suggested I didn't feel like eating that much meat from lunch. That's all I knew about Brazilian restaurant is just bunch of all you can eat meat. When I read the yelp reviews, I was pleasantly surprised they have other form of Brazilian restaurant and this one just opened early this year.
When we got seated, the server brought us complimentary plantain chips. It was slightly salty for my liking but it tasted like they just made them that morning. Deep fried food doesn't taste good next day but this one didn't have that stale taste to it. We started with fried yuca as appetizer and it tasted like french fries. Dipping sauce went well with fried yuca. It reminded of Peruvian food I had before.
For lunch, I had Bobo De Camarao - shrimp dish. Shrimp was in a puree of yuca and coconut milk, and I tasted the hint of coconut milk and I thought I could just eat this sauce with rice only.
For desert, I shared the Brazilian Flan. The texture was between Mexican flan and New York Cheese cake, was a little harder than I anticipated but really enjoyed the flan with caramel sauce.
Service was slow for lunch but most people there didn't seem to be in a hurry. We just enjoyed conversation and nice leisurely afternoon.
This was my first time to eat non-steakhouse Brazilian food. Other food they have on the menu looks very inviting. I would like to try more of what they have on the menu.
