"Eating excellent churrasco on the street is as Brazilian as it gets. From Thursday to Sunday, Brazilian BBQ sets up a huge rotisserie grill outside a West LA Trader Joes where you’ll find juicy picanha, linguiça that snaps when you bite in, and queijo coalho, a salty Brazilian cheese that gets grilled on a stick until it’s soft like a hot cheese curd. You'll see a few chairs set up on the sidewalk where you can enjoy a meat plate with feijoada and rice on the side or a drippy picanaha sandwich on ciabatta that oozes mozzarella." - Sylvio Martins

Food Rundown Picanha Plate Few cuts of steak nail the meat-to-fat ratio quite like picanha. The tiny bites of buttery fat from the steak’s cap coat your mouth and balance out the beef’s natural savoriness. This plate also comes with farofa and some nicely acidic chunky tomato-onion-bell pepper vinaigrette that cuts through the meat's richness. Picanha Sandwich A sturdy ciabatta roll filled with slices of salty picanha, gooey fresh mozzarella, and that briney vinaigrette that really brings everything together. Definitely get this. Chicken Heart Skewer These tiny morsels are chewy and salty with a particular metallic aftertaste that, frankly, you either love or hate. We personally love it and think these are a great snacking option as you wait for your picanha plate and listen to the sweet sounds of the 405." - Sylvio Martins
