| - Our first visit to Mina's and it won't be our last! We had their Sunday Brunch $24.99 and for seniors, it's 20% discount. The buffet of salads, hot and cold sides was really good. I especially like the palm hearts and tomatoes, cheese bread, grilled cold asparagus, potato salad and other salads like loaves of bread, salsa, Caesar salad and coleslaw. I like the hot sides - especially the prawns, pork & black beans, brown beans, white rice & vege rice. For Sunday brunch, there's also breakfast items like bacon, yogurt, cereal, made-to-order eggs including eggs benedict with a Brazilian flair!
Excellent cuts of meat - 9 if you want to count them all! This is just for the Sunday Brunch:
Picanha - Top Sirloin - Love it!
Alcatraz - Prime Beef Hips - Absolutely love it!
Bife a Parmegiano - Beef Parmesan - A little tough for me.
Asa de Franco - Chicken Wings - Really good.
Curacao de Franco - Chicken Hearts - Absolutely love it!
Linguica de Porco - Pork Sausages - Delicious!
Chorizo Apimentado - Chorizo Sausages - Spicy little sausages - love the kick!
Corte do Porco - Pork Loin or Shoulder - OMG! Delicious! (reminds me a little of the Chinese "siu yoke" but more tender)
Peña de Carneiro - Leg of Lamb - Quite nice.
Desserts and fruits were the last items to attack at the buffet. Luckily the desserts were cut in small little bites as then it didn't seem it was a lot if you ate these little bites after eating all that food! LOL
If you're getting full, they provide a red/green sign for the chef. Green - keep bringing meat. Red - please stop bringing meat.
Restaurant is situated on the main level below a fairly new condo complex near the Eau Claire Market. Parking is on-street or at Eau Claire Market. Great customer service and very attentive service!
