The wall decorations alone---steer parts, steer parts everywhere---show you meat rules at this Brazilian churrasco rodizio (literally, rotating barbecue) in Inman Square. When you order the rodizio (which most people do), meats from a dozen or so slowly turning spits will be pulled from the rotisserie, carried to your table and fancily carved right onto your plate---as much as you want of whatever you want: beef, pork, lamb, sausage---even chicken hearts. To accompany it, two self-serve buffets---one hot, one cold---await, laden with sides; a small non-rodizio menu is also available. Speaking of accompaniment, you'll also be treated to live samba some nights.
