 Waiting for Pickup After the
Meal by Bwana_Brown
Our first experience here was a bit past noon on the day of our mistaken trip to Itaipu Dam and Foz. Once the problem was recognized by the tour group, they dropped us off outside in the parking lot while the group went inside to eat. Our guide said we would have to wait about 10 minutes (which turned into 40 minutes) for a car to come fetch us for a tour of the Argentinian-side of Iguazu Falls in the afternoon. As a result, we never did get lunch that day!
The next day, we were back again because this was also the planned lunch stop following completion of the Brazil-side tour of Iguacu Falls! At least we had an English-speaking tour guide who kept us informed of what was happening, so we actually got to eat something this time!
The food was quite good-looking and tasted great as well. I took it relatively easy because this was the first time in 2 days that I actually felt a bit hungry due to some sort of stomach bug I picked up on our last day in Buenos Aires. The buffet cost was only A$11 (US$4) per person with a bit extra for a cold beer. We had a good time sitting and chatting with another Canadian couple we met on the bus. They had been on a cruise from Santiago, Chile around Cape Horn, the Falkland Islands (freezing!) and Uruguay before continuing overland on their homeward leg.

I knew before coming to South America that the Parana region of Brazil and the neighboring Argentina and Paraguay were well known for its beef. The meat in this region is supposed to be the best in the world.
The famous method of cooking named churrasco, means that the tender cuts of meat are cooked on long steel skewers over a hot grill. At a traditional churrascaria restaurant you are served at your table from the skewer and sliced off by the waiter (called passadors) as much barbequed meat as you like. The waiter holding the skewer is back again and again until you do not stop him.
The Bufalo Branco is probably the best place in the city for churrasco. On the menu there are a lot of fine cuts such as picanha- rump steak, alcatra-sirloin, filet mignon, maminha-a fattier rump steak, and contra filet-entrecôte. Fish, salad bar and several cold dishes are also in the menu.
I tried almost all the cuts, and I was not able to select , which one the most delicate !!!!
The only problem I had was the passador came by so frequently that my plate filled up faster than I could clear it.
My biggest discovery, however, was beside the supremely tender and delicious picanha, the caipirinha, the famous Brazilian cocktail which is a blend of cachaca, crushed limes, sugar and ice and is perfect for a dinner on hot summer evenings.
The restaurant is open daily for lunch and dinner. (from noon to 11pm)
It is expensive, but it had a very nice atmosphere (look at the picture), excellent service, and really good food!! Theme: LocalComparison: more expensive than averageAddress: Rua Engeneiro Rebouças 530Phone: 045/3523-9744Directions: Not far from Bourbon hotelWebsite: www.bufalobranco.com.br

 that's me wearing my new
flamengo jersey. by acemj
I ordered a Brazilian wine since after all I was in Brazil. They actually had a pretty good selection of Spanish, Portuguese and Argentine wines too. I personally like red wine, so when I said, "vino tinto, por favor" the waiter corrected my pronunciation. Around here, it sounds more like "teen choe". The wine label said I had ordered a Miolo Selecao, which really wasn't too good (11% alcohol content for a red wine usually doesn't do the trick), but I wasn't going to let that ruin the great atmosphere (you know . . . me and the waiter who thought I was a crazy gringo who couldn't even pronounce a simple word in Portuguese).
I also had a bottle of still water . . . total bill was just under 40 reais (less than 14 bucks US).
For dinner, I ate something on the menu called "A Zaragoza" figuring it must be a specialty of the house. It turned out to be a fresh trout from one of the local rivers grilled and served with rice, vegetables and potatoes. It was great. Just like fresh caught fish cooked over a fire. Yum.
By the way, fish in Portuguese is peixe and trout is truta. Leave a Comment

When our concierge mentioned that there was an all you can eat pizza joint in Foz de Iguacu I thought "I know where we are eating" and I'm pretty sure my husband was thinking that he had died and gone to heaven, in all our travels this was the first one of these we had come across (although we do have pizza buffets in the US) where they come around with trays of pizza and serve you slices, some format as the all you can eat meat places minus the skewers :-)
Our concierge admitted when we came back that he rarely mentions this place to guests, I guess he expects that people staying at a 5* resort in this area want the linen tablecloth treatment but I guess we are scruffy enough looking that he took a chance LOL
I'm not even sure how many different kinds of pizza we tried, I passed on some of the more bizarre choices like the ones with corn and tuna but there were plenty of other options plus a few non pizza items like chicken wings and french fries. Follow that with a chocolate dessert pizza and a freezer full of ice cream, all included in the price.
This place was incredibly cheap, R$8.99 for the buffet, for the two of us with drinks and tip was R$26 ($13 US) Leave a Comment

This restaurant located in the road that leads to Iguassu Falls (or Cataratas do Iguacu) serves Churrasco (brazilian barbecue). They also include a buffet with salads, pastas, desserts, etc. Although it is mostly frequented by tourists (they give good tips to the guides), some locals do attend there at weekends.
The Rafain Churrascaria is best known for its evening folklore show. At night, they have several shows to entertain their costumers. It is a family environment, even with the Samba show they have (mulatas dancing with tiny bikinis). Nothing very fancy, but it is not a expensive place and it is worth to dinner there if you have some extra time. Leave a Comment
