Traditional Brazilian cuisine Wakefield
Culinarily, "Estabulo" represents the art of slow cooking over open flames, a method borrowed from Brazilian Gaúchos that preserves the natural flavors of the cuts of meat. A highlight is the Picanha, a juicy cut of beef shoulder prized for its tenderness and intense flavor—often perfectly grilled and served with a light crust of salt. Also popular is the marinated chicken, enhanced with spices, combining a crispy exterior with a juicy core. The salad bar offers an impressive selection of fresh sides, including roasted pumpkin and black beans prepared in "Feijoada" style, providing a hearty complement to the meat dishes. For a sweet ending, the Sticky Toffee Pudding is often highlighted—a warm, sweet dessert that provides a delightful contrast to the hearty main course with its rich sauce. The drink selection includes Brazilian classics like Caipirinhas, made with fresh lime juice and Cachaça, perfectly rounding off the meal.
