"You can count on North Miami Beach’s Boteco Do Manolo for impromptu group dinners with rabid carnivorous friends. The Brazilian restaurant’s menu, roughly the length of a Pixar screenplay, is overwhelming. But the juicy bit lies in the chapter titled “steaks.” That’s where you’ll find sirloin steaks that come with a holiday spread of sides: rice, feijoada, farofa with scrambled eggs, and yuca fries. The half portions feed two and full portions feed four. There are six large flat screens that surround the center bar, which makes it a great place to catch matches between Brazilian club teams and sip on strong caipirinhas. Dining alone is an option during the week from 12pm to 5pm when they serve single servings of their dishes. photo credit: CLEVELAND JENNINGS / @EATTHECANVASLLC photo credit: CLEVELAND JENNINGS / @EATTHECANVASLLC photo credit: CLEVELAND JENNINGS / @EATTHECANVASLLC" - Mariana Trabanino
