If you want to taste the food of another culture, you could go to the old Italian standby up the block, whether authentic or heavily Americanized, or you could try something else. I'm not talking about an unpalatable Thai place, but something more along the lines of exploring new tastes you already like, but might not know about. I'm talking about the Brazilian Steakhouse, and I know just a few such places in the world to recommend.If you want to have an experience like none other, there are just a handful of places outside of Brazil that offer something I can actually recommend. There is one in New York, Shanghai, Johannesburg and one more in Atlanta. They're all good, each worth your time, and especially if you've never had it before, worth going quite a ways out of your way for.
First of all, when it comes to authentic Brazilian dining, you can't expect your typical dining experience. You won't be offered a menu, you won't have to settle for just one type of food, and your server isn't going to just give you your meal and leave you alone. That's where it starts to get exciting, but that isn't the end of it by a mile.
