Yemanja-brasil is the kind of small Brazilian restaurant you want to visit when you pass by. The owner is a real Brazilian, and the smell of barbecue coming from the kitchen can drag you straight into the door. The signature is slow-roasted picanha, which is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, served with a bowl of feijoada (black bean stew) and a sip of caipirinha, just like eating on the streets of Sao Paulo. The place is not big, but the atmosphere is lively. It is suitable for bringing a few friends over for a weekend meal and chatting at the door for a long time after you are full.
