I grabbed a fellow working Mum to join me for a night off from the usual bath and bedtime routines to enjoy the re-opening of local Brazilian restaurant Casa Rodizio. The restaurant has been refreshed with a modern, funky rodeo style makeover with fun horse saddle overhead lighting and floral walls as well as an angle wings selfie point at the entrance which I know would appeal to a little miss 8 year old.
Casa Rodizio is a Brazilian restaurant serving over 18 varieties of meat, rodizio style, as well as a huge self serve salad bar and additional hot food sides such as roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese, grilled vegetables, spicey chicken and more!
At Casa Rodizio you pay a set price and eat as much main course as you like. There is a cold salad bar with loads to choose from such as olives, various lettuce leaves in dressings, pasta salad, king prawns, homemade breads, cheese, cold meats, bean salads, beetroot, coleslaw, houmous, stuffed peppers, the list goes on. A real salad bar feast!
At the end of the cold salads there are some other hot side dishes such as roasted potatoes, hot beans, crispy polenta, cauliflower cheese, grilled vegetables, spicey chicken and more cooked fish and meats.
Once you’ve filled your plate with sides, take a seat and flip your red coaster to green to start a stream of waiters bringing a selection of cooked meats rodizio style to your table. If you need a break, simply flip the coaster back to red to have a pause before flipping it back to green again!
Drinks and desserts are available at an additional cost – we tried the tiramisu and a traditional Brazilian custard desert, both were delicious!
As it was the grand reopening we also got to enjoy some Brazilian dancing and music throughout the night.
If you have a very mini mumbler (0-5 years) they eat for free so make the most of that while you can 😊.
