Restaurant Costel e Cia, Sao Bernando do Campo, REVIEW

They love their beef in Brazil and one great place to load up on the national passion of eating beef is Costel e Cia, a chain of specialty buffet restaurants throughout Brazil. Their specialty is RIBS (Costel = Rib in Portuguese).

The rib meat is all served off the bone (essentially the "Prime Rib") portion of the meat prized in the US for larger roasts and succulent brunch buffet offerings. Here the beef rib is served well smoked slow cooked to simple shreddable tenderness.
My picture does not do it justice
This shot from the restaurants website is much more clear
A nice salad bar with fresh greens and more exotic marinated veggies and fruit. Hearts of palm are nearly a staple while in Brazil. Hearts of Palm I find I enjoy on an strange level maybe because of the barbaric nature of murdering the young palm tree just to eat its succulent heart wood; like I said strange.
.
Polenta, farofa, kimchi all make for an esoteric but delightful salad bar at this Japanese run Brazilian ribs chain.

Definitely a winner for lunch or dinner, and very reasonable cost for such an indulgent amount of food. Not white table cloth and very much a cafeteria level of service. But GREAT.

Moonrise Kingdom, a cozy craft beer bar in Tokyo-Shinjuku

Craft Brewing is not what normally comes to mind when people ask about Japan. They'll ask if you like raw fish (there is more to Japanese cuisine than Sashimi or Sushi), or they'll comment about Sake (there is more than just rice wine in Japan); but if you look, you will definitely find some. Our recent trip to Tokyo, this April just after the Sakura had been swept away by rain :-( we were able to find a perfectly suitable refuge for the Craft Beer Lover.  Moonrise Kingdom(via their Instagram) StringGrrl with one of the NEIPA/Hazy IPA on tap from Japanese Craft Breweries As a treat, the owners shared an American Milk Stout from Left Hand Brewing out of Colorado Local ExPat who gave up their stool to make room for StringGrrl and Kam Carryout beer from Kyoto Brewing Company, Vertere

EYWTKAMABIWRTS

everything you wanted to know about my accident but I wasn't ready to share  (u pdated 28th February. Done, gone home, Scroll to see more ) Here's the lowdown since curiosity abounds: 1) NO, I didn't have a skiing accident. I resent the implication. I owned that fucking Hill . (Family Friendly video) 2) It was a sled 🛷 . It's not an extreme sport. It's called a Rodelbahn (toboggan road) and is considered fun for the whole family. Sebastian supplied the sleds/toboggans, and after a full morning on the mountain skiing. We planned to use the few remaining hours of lift access to run the Rodelbahn. Totally reasonable. 3) The run isn't like a luge or bobsled but a trail down reasonable slopes (switchbacks adjacent to a green dot, blue square ski run) but maybe a bit narrower. Rodelbahn at Nauders 4) I think I over-steered at the exact wrong time and was catapulted into the trees, and down a steep slope, bounced off many trees, broke a few d...
