Daytime
It was time this blog had it’s own fineprint: Site optimized for browsers with a sense of humor. Best viewed after the third or fourth drink, blurry after the tenth or so. Criticism taken from those proven worthy, all others may take their chance at their own risk. Whatever you do don't take everything at face value and most of all respect the opinions and beliefs of others.

Rice, orange, spinach, mushrooms and something else.
Bon appetit.
I don't remember how you say it em portugues.
I think Vitriolica MUST come and have a look at this one!!!
GG: You got two out of 6 right... and this is not exactly typical from Portugal. Hehehe
feijoada? chorizo, rice, orange :), salad and lamb??
vomit?
Mmm... feijão...
The dark thing is feijoada, black beans with bacon and chouriço (smoked sausage). The orange was easy. The white is rice. The green is fried cabbage. The meat slices are garlic 'picanha', one of Brazil's most famed delicacies. The two small sausages are 'salsichas gaúchas' also from Brazil.
Our cabbage is almost white in colour. Is yours dark green or did you add something to make it so green? Funny, we had cabbage for dinner last night too.
In Portugal we have several kinds of green cabbage, white cabbage and purple cabbage. This is the most common type, we use it mainly for making a typical soup called Caldo Verde (Green Soup): finely shredded green cabbage on a coarse potato soup, seasoned with olive oil, salt and smoked sausage.
This one is typical from Brazil. The entire dish is Brazillian food.
Looks tasty. But if you asked my good half, she'd say it's missing the most important thing:
Farinha!
Viking: The 'farofa' was on the little cup on the side, same as the hot sauce...
AND we had a few caipirinhas also.
Doesn't look very appetizing but I bet it is very tasty! I love all the ingredients listed so I am in for it!
In Spain I had tripe with chick peas...Mmmmm from a cook...
cream: Welcome and thanks for the comment. Most of the Brazillian and Portuguese food is not very elaborate on presentation, even the Spanyards take greater care on looks, but believe me it is tasty. Hope you'll drop by now and then, cooking is just a hobby for me, tips from pros are always welcome.
Yeah, looks definitely aren't a requirement in Brasilian food. The moment you put a plate like that in front of a Brasilian, they'll be mushing it all together in one big pile anyway :)
The sausages look like fingers.
bent: Sorry to disappoint you but human and dog meat are out of my menu. At least for the time being... Muahuahuahuahuahuahuahua
Dc, I wonder why my comment never showed up here last night? It was about spam in Hawaii.. did you ever see it?
kris: Nope. Not here not in my e-mail. I get all comments mailed to me, it has happened once blogger 'swallowed' a comment and it was in my e-mail, but not this time. Can you please post it again?
another pronounciation question for you...how do you properly say "feijoada"? I've had it massacred, so I'd love to hear it straight from the source...
Vesparosso:
fei as in faith
jo as in jurassic
a as in art
da as in duh
unless you're a brazillian, then joa will sound more like Joanesburg
I can't wait to get to Portugal for Christmas!!!
Xmas here is dangerous, very dangerous indeed. All the delicious Xmas treats...
