oh Fogo De Chao

we went to philly for the weekend. stayed with ashraf. went to this place called Fogo de Chao. most delicious meat i've ever had. EVER.

gauchos -in gaucho pants no less- come by your table with meat on swords. they ask politely if you'd like whatever it is that's been impaled onto their sow rd. if you say yes, you get a fresh, hot slice of heavenly tasting seasoned meat piled onto your plate in manageable cuts. the house special was to die for.

not only did they provide a constant supply of meat on swords served by gauchos in gaucho pants, they also had a gigantic parmesan wheel at the salad bar. to get some cheese, you hack at the wheel. best tasting parmesan i'd ever had, and went beautifully with the meats being served.

i think we had about 12 gaucho-style servers.

it was not only a dining experience, but one of the best meals i think i've ever had in my life. we planned, before ashraf, ryan and i even left the table, that we're going back in november to celebrate my birthday there and eat more meats.

^_^

i heart gauchos
