The site can tell you a thing or two more about Churrasco de Brasil.
"The founders/owners of Churrasco de Brasil are grandsons of Italian immigrants and sons of Gauchos, born and raised in Southern Brazil," per the history section of the business's Yelp profile. "In the Gaucho culture, family and friends gather together each weekend to celebrate the good things that happened that week: a birthday, a wedding, a good harvest, a newborn family member or just the joys of life and friendship."
Furthermore, we found this about the business's signature items: "Churrasco is a unique type of cooking created by the Gauchos from south of Brazil," it writes on Yelp in the section explaining specialties. "After digging pits in the ground, the gauchos would start a bonfire from the rangelands of the Pampas. Once the fire turns to embers, large pieces of meat are skewered and slowly roasted to perfection over the fire pits."
