Rio de Janeiro Restaurants

Rio is a paradise of fine dining in which almost every kind of international cuisine is available but the local dishes, here, are well worth experiencing. The national dish 'feijoada' consists of black beans and pork served with rice, kale and manioc. Another favorite is 'churrasco', huge chunks of barbecued beef, or pork served with manioc and onions. In many of these steak houses a set price secures customers as much meat as they can eat. Seafood is a speciality in Rio with fresh lobster, shrimp and shellfish appearing on a large number of restaurant menus. 'Caipirinha' made from cane sugar rum, lime juice and sugar is Brazil's delicious but highly potent alcoholic drink that can 'slide down' just a touch too easily; so beware!
