| Presentation is everything at Texas de Brazil, where Southern hospitality meets gaucho-inspired cuisine. Servers don classic Brazilian cowboy garb as they deliver skewers of meats (filet mignon, pork loin, chicken breast, picanha, you name it) that have been grilled over an open flame. Vegetarians will find something to eat at the extensive (50-55 items) hot and cold salad and sides bar. The black beans and farofa, a classic Brazilian dish, are there, and don't forget to snag some chimichurri sauce for the meats. Brunch also features conventional breakfast fare in addition to grilled meats. For dessert, papayas and cream keep the tastes of Brazil going, but there are plenty of traditional Southern desserts, such as bananas Foster pie and pecan pie (this is Memphis, after all). The extensive, globally selected wine list offers 20-plus wines by the glass and about 20 half bottles. Chile and Argentina are well represented, and there are a number of Argentine Malbecs. |
