Rio Churrasco Brazilian Restaurant

So Brazilian food hmmm. I am intrigued and therefore I went....this is my sacrifice to you, not for me and my obsession with food.

Here in Visalia there are sooo many places to eat that it is just plain difficult to choose, so we get into our fav's and stay there, but I say lets try something different and Rio Churrasco that sounds different.

So the paper says there are "waiters, called gauchos, wearing red sashes" bringing skewers of meat, and I am down with that; bring it on I say. I went during lunch and it was a little slow, with my friend and they gave me a block that's red on one side that signals you are done; and green on the other that signals bring more food. How easy is that every place should do that. It's kind of a cave man approach to eating.

I was excited about the prospect of "skewers of meat" coming at me; my first round came after I went to the buffet area to fill up with beans, rice, veggies, etc. He put tiny little pieces of what ever he happened to have on the skewer. It was super good, but the caveman inside wanted to say "leave skewer.. go away" grunt grunt. Go green. save a trip, me want bigger portions.

Though it was small the flavor was huge, there was not one single item I didn't like there, that is when I grasped the concept behind the little pieces, there was a big variety of meats, and he just kept coming by bringing little pieces. I can't even really pin point which one was a favorite they are all just good, that is pretty rare these days to like a menu. I can't say I would go there often because I do have a problem with $15 per person for lunch. But it was mmm mmm good.
