| January 6, 2016
Try the tastes of Rio de Janeiro
Rio is famous for a limey cachaça concoction known as the caipirinha – delicious and ubiquitous at every bar and restaurant. Cheap, tasty, and strong, the caipirinha is fun to drink and fun to say!
Rio is also famous for all-you-can-eat churrascarias, or meat-heavy barbecues with large and plentiful salad bar offerings.
The snacks of Rio, including pastels (cheesy filled pastries), pao de queijo (cheesy bread), churros (deep fried, tube shaped doughnuts with filling), and popcorn are far from healthy but definitely delightful, and sold throughout the city by vendor carts.
