The other day we went to Texas de Brazil in Las Vegas to celebrate a birthday. The food was delicious and the decor was warm and inviting, but honestly they offered way more food than I could possibly eat. They might have more packages than the all-you-can or more-than-you-should-eat options, but I struggled to find it. I asked if they had any limited option that could save my body shape and budget, but our server just chuckled.

⭐ Tucanos Brazilian Steakhouse Options

Enter a Brazilian hero at Tucanos Brazilian Steakhouse in Utah. If you have left your "mid-twenties and invincible" era in favor of the "I have a mortgage and a favorite probiotic" stage, then you should check out the different dining options at Tucanos. They offer a nice variety of options including:

1. Full Churrasco Experience

The classic all‑you‑can‑eat Brazilian barbecue lineup — rotating cuts of grilled meats, carved tableside, plus access to the hot sides and salad bar. Perfect if you are still the roaring carnivore of your mid‑twenties… or don't mind being rolled to your car.

2. Limited Meat Option

A more modest selection of meats at a lower price point. Ideal for people who love Brazilian barbecue but don’t need to prove anything to anyone, including their tongue.

3. Salad Bar & Hot Sides Only

Because sometimes you want the flavors, the vibes, and the pão de queijo… without the existential crisis that comes from saying “yes” too many times to a man holding a sword of top sirloin.

4. Kids’ Pricing

Should children have to pay adult prices for three bites of mashed potatoes and a roll.

5. Takeout Options

All the flavor, none of the pressure to keep flipping your card to green like you’re competing in the Meat Olympics. If you want the flavor without the social pressure of keeping up with the gauchos.

I love the flavors of a good Brazilian steakhouse, but my calorie count or budget can afford to become a frequent flyer. I mean when my gaucho walks by with the fifth cut of meat in ten minutes and my brain says no but your mouth says absolutely, king, carve it — I need the variety of options at Tucanos.

Ten Breathtaking Photos from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

I just got back from a vacation to Rio de Janeiro. I took between 300 and 400 photos, but, to give you a quick sample of the might and majesty of the city, I decided to narrow my favorites down to just ten (with a couple of honorable mentions thrown in for good measure).
