Parking is ample, and it seems that despite the leisurely air of this Setor das Clubes, where the residents of Brasilia come to unwind, you're bound to find yourself in the middle of something popping here. There are several varieties of each type of dish, for example, you can get rice with chicken or carne de sol (sun-dried beef) or even whole grain if you're health-conscious. There are plenty of tempting seafood offering, surprising for the interior, but I prefer to stick to the staples: rice, beans, meat with legs. I especially enjoyed the eggplant and the caramelized pineapple, as well as the tender leg of lamb prepared with rosemary. I can't say I was amazed by a risotto-like mixture that was featured. I was impressed by the novel system of recording the weight of your buffet choices on magnetic cards, rather than on paper tabs. The patio area outside is a bit fresher and less crowded (with hammocks!) than the tabled inside area, and eating outside is a possibility once you've registered your plate in the buffet area. Also, unlimited free bananas at your table could never be a bad thing. If I were awarding stars just for the quality and value of the food, I'd be inclined to go with 3, some of my choices just didn't overwhelm me with flavor and freshness. I do understand how quality can sometimes suffer in a place that serves the masses such as Mangai, nor did I regret anything I put on my plate. However, the super casual, convenient atmosphere, the large selection, which is sure to provide you with at least one satisfying choice, and the incredible desserts make this chill spot one worth returning to.

You can find it on many Brazilian restaurants. Although there is a similar beer in other countries (Germany, Israel). Those are not alcoholic. Some people may not like it because it is slightly sweet. Let me know what you think!

How lucky for us!!! The food was absolutely superb! I had the bacalhau, which was served with a shredded potato rosti and a mild sauce and my wife had the wild boar(!), which was served with grilled polenta. The boar was literally falling off the bone; the polenta was crunchy outside and creamy inside, accompanied by a demi-glace that was as delicious as the boar. The cod was lovely, golden, tender and flaky. We finished it all off with a wonderful crème brûlée, done tableside. The restaurant also has a very impressive wine menu, with many outstanding wines from around the world. Service, unsurprisingly, was also excellent.
