Hey George, really like your videos! One hint: brazilian people like to mix foods on the plate... that's why when you taste them separately they can seem a little bit intense or weird. Next time, try to mix rice with the beans and the meat, you'll notice an intense richness of flavor and textures. For example the "sweets" you tasted it are better with a salty or neutral counterpart (i.e white brazilian cheese). Farofa is never eaten alone, you always mix it with the beans stew. Guava jam are eaten with bread or cheese.
it is not called cajuinaaaaaaaaa non such thing iti s called SUCO DE CAJU..head to the north east,,the best! the rest is immitation!czcams.com/video/fu4QfH24cJc/video.html
Petition to make George a brazilian citizen. 😅 Youre very charismatic. Wish you all the best in your life, gerogie. And if you try moqueca, make sure its the "capixaba" one. 😁
Mocotó was created by a Northeaster man in the north part of Sāo Paulo suburbs. It used to be a very humble place serving a humble plate called mocotó (made from cow’s bone cartilage). His son took over it and changed to one of the most famous NE cousine in SPaulo. Mocotó branches are in many places now. Wonderful food ✨✨✨
But it seems they could've make a bigger place looking the huge line with wait time of 1:30 hrs, I'm from Goiás and I didn't know people wait that many in a line to eat.
George went all over the world, searching and searching… ends up with a girl from São Paulo. Brings her home to Japan, so that his family can meet his exotic Brazilian love… and she’s Japanese Brazilian.
I've eaten at Mocotó several times and it's one of the best northeastern cuisine restaurants in São Paulo city. Brazilian desserts are really too sweet for the foreign palate of most countries, so the suggestion is to eat very small portions
I agree, but even when it comes to desserts, I prefer and usually compliment the cook when it is just mildly sweet. Humans eat too much sugar nowadays. That's overwhelming and not healthy, and I don't really enjoy overly sweet stuff. So in a nutshell, I think that boils down to personal preference, like you said.
Brazilian deserts are well known for being "too sweet for foreign tastes", but they're very flavorful. My suggestions for foreign people are allways take little bites just to taste it and then decide if they want to mix it with something blend or savory (like white cheese, which goes PERFECTLY with guava jam) or to spread on a slice of bread, toast or cracker.
About "cajuína", it's made from "caju" but it takes a different process to make than the common "caju" juice. It's clear while the common "caju" juice is yellow and full of pulp. Personally, I prefer the juice with pulp. The steak you`ve tasted is called "Carne de sol" (sun meat). It`s typical from the northeast region of Brazil. It has this name because, in the past, as people needed to conservate the meat, they applied lots of salt over it and let it dry on the sun (this is the origin of the name). The " enriched rice" is called "Baião de Dois" which is based on a style of music from northeast region of Brazil (called "Baião") and "dois" means "two", which are the basic ingredients: rice and beans. But the most common "Baião de Dois" takes rice, beans (a variety called "feijão de corda", which was in the bean soup you've tried), small cubs of cheese (which melts into the rice), chives, garlic and onion. And about sweets, you've noticed that we, Brazilians, have really sweet teeth. =D
Those desserts are “caldas” - they’re kinda like sweet sauces. I don’t like eating then straight like that because they’re too sweet, they’re better like toppings or used like jams (on bread or on cake). But yes, Brazilian desserts are a billion times sweeter than Japanese sweets! I hope you get someone to take you to a moqueca restaurant before you have to leave 😅
😂😂muito engraçado esse comentário do “Kanpai” ...foi bom ter revisto e esclarecido ! 😂...a variedade na culinária brasileira é grande ! Cada região tem sua peculiaridade ! Delícias !
Hey George, since you are once again in São Paulo, don't forget to try sanduíche de mortadela at the Mercadão Municipal. This sandwich goes a long way back in the past at a place called Bar do Mané, founded in 1933. Back then this Bar was first called Bar do Jeremias (then later called Mané's Bar). At that time they didn't add too much mortadela to the sandwich, different than we have now with lots of mortadela added. Everybody in São Paulo knows about sanduíche de mortadela. It has become so famous that even people who don't live in São Paulo want to try it too. It's definitely a must for anyone who's visiting São Paulo. That being said, you've just found the perfect person to teach you Portuguese. Akemi is the one! It's super cool she teaches Brazilian Portuguese to people who speak English, and Japanese and want to learn Brazilian Portuguese. I also speak Portuguese, English, and Japanese. I'm also learning other languages. I hope you get to learn our language, since Portuguese is a beautiful language to speak, not to mention to be able to listen to great Brazilian musicians and songs, like those from Bossa Nova, MPB, etc. Music is a great and fun way to learn languages. Akemi will soon get you speaking Portuguese in no time. ;) So no more excuses ( just joking :) ) I always feel more relieved when you go out with friends since they can assist you more, and show you places to know. I also know a dear friend called Akemi. She's not an English teacher but she works at a local store with her husband. Her husband also speaks perfect Japanese. He lived in Japan for almost 18 years, then came back to Brazil. His sister lives in the USA now. That's it. Enjoy tour time in Brazil. Sorry for the long text. I guess I like talking a lot, I mean, typing a lot. See you. :)
@@joaodeagora, We shouldn't label everybody selling fruits at the Mercado Municipal scammers. Not all people there are like that. Of course, there are some dishonest vendors all over Brazil, not just there. The people who sell sanduíche de mortadella are always honest there and friendly. That's why I said to Geroge it's always good to hang out with friends when visiting some places. Sometimes people can be dishonest and overprice us. Unfortunately, it's something we always have to deal with. Whereas in Japan, that almost never happens, here is another thing. Brazilians are always so open arms and friendly, like no other place in the world, but there are always those who damage our image.
I live near this restaurant, it really one of the best in São Paulo. The food of northeast of Brazil is really the best, but too strong, especially the sweets.
I was laughing at the desert part because cultural differences are so nice and cute! I can't know the exact taste of the deserts you tried but usually they aren't sooo very sweet, they are just mildly sweet (probably this is my brazilian tasting speaking hahaha) I'm glad you liked our cuisine, we are very rich in this aspect. Also, because it was your first time you probably wouldn't know but there are kinda specific ways for us to consume these sweets on our daily lives, like how we usually eat coconut sweet on its solid form (cocada), the same with the guava jam (goiabada, but this one usually comes accompanied by cream cracker or other salty stuff) Love your videos! I love to see Brazil through genuine foreigner's lens
Hi, this is a great place! This "sun meet" is a typical food from the Northeast. It takes this name because in the beginning it was made in two steps: lightly salting the meat and drying the pieces in the sun. We have a similar meat, the dry meat, more salty...
You might have noticed it, George. For brazilians our taste range is bigger, what might be too sweet for you is just normal for us. The same can happen also with salt. The funny part is, people can complain saying the desert is not "sweet enough".
I've been wanting to go to Mocotó for soooo long haha you can find a lot of Brazilian food in Japan, but not the more regional dishes 😅 everything looks so good! 😋 Oh! And "cajú" it's how we say "cashew" in Portuguese 😉
I am also japanese descendant, desperately need to start learning japanese 😅 (My grandma everytime she saw me she used to say "you need to learn japanese") And you still did not tried the real "caju" juice 🤣 (actually I did not know about this "cajuína" I've just find out from your video 🤣 learning a lot from you of my own country 😅🤣 Nice vid George!
Most brazilians are sweet tooths and have no limits to sugar 😂 Although I do not share that trait with my countrymen, I have to defend them and say that things are rarely eaten separetly in Brazil, so strong flavors like spicy/salty/sugarry things will more often than not be served with something complementary. I guess that the piece of cheese at the center of the dessert plate was an example. It was either the main item in the dessert, making the four sweets dippings or pastes to go with it, or it was the companion to the sweets to make them more enjoyable, similar to the pork+lime. The same goes to the seamingly bland yuca/cassava, which was likely to be the companion to a more salty and oily item like the steak or the fried pork also. In all, I think you did great George! I am Brazilian but would also not enjoy the sweets beyong a single bite of each, so large portions like that are better to share.
You should taste the cheese with all the candies... pumpkin candie, milk candie (doce de leite), guava candie (goiabada) and coconut candie (cocada). The meat you tasted is dried by salt and it calls carne de sol (sun meat) because it takes 1 day to dry (sun to sun). Regarding beans we in Brazil have a lot of kind. Feijão de corda (rap bean) is very common in northeast but not that much in São Paulo. Love your videos!!! =D
You can totally mix them all together as people mentioned, they come in different containers we just get a little of everything and take a spoonful of them all, you decide (i would've totally dipped that beef into the purê (the french purée) it looks so good)
try eating the beans on top of the rice, it's the most common way we eat it here (some Brazilians eat the beans under the rice too or the beans on the side of the rice but it's common to mix them and taste both at the same time )
Ohhhhh mannnn rsrrs I lived the last 6 years in USA, many friends are coming from Ireland and US to visit Brazil with me, I have good places to take you here in São Paulo and in my city, Rio de Janeiro, you are going to love it!!!!
I'm glad you visited the Mocoto! Its a must go in Sao Paulo, I grew up going there and Rodrigo is a cool guy I worked with him for a while here in Los Angeles, he is so wholesome! I'll breakdown what you had in case people reading the comment section and got curious and wanna visit and have some of the dishes can learn a bit: *Baiao de dois: is a traditional northeastern with their main components mostly composed of rice, beans, dry-meat or bacon and cheese. *Mandioca Cozida: Cooked Manioc/Yucca, usually cooked with butter and salt. *Farofa de Cuscuz: Traditionally made with Yucca Flour Stir Fried with seasoning and often with some protein as well such as bacon, in this case is made with couscous, an influence of the middle-eastern cuisine common in the Northeast brazil. *Feijao de Corda: a type of black-eyed pea, made into a stew. *Pure de Mandioca com queijo coalho: Is Mashed Yucca and brazilian cured cheese (tha same you ate on another video on a churrasco I believe it was on Christmas you ate cheese skewers, that's the same cheese). *Carne de Sol: Is a Dry Aged on Salt and brown sugar a cut of Silverside of Angus Cattle, them grilled on charcoal served with pimenta biquinho (a sweet pepper from Brazil) and roasted garlic. *Dadinho de Tapioca: The Tapioca Dice, that was ACTUALLY CREATED BY RODRIGO ON MOCOTO. So that is the ORIGINAL DADINHO DE TAPIOCA!!! *Torresmo: Pork Belly with the Crackling (Also known as Chicharron in other latin countries). *Pudim de tapioca: A Pudim made with tapioca and cachaca caramel *Sorvete de Rapadura: is an Ice Cream made with rapadura a candy made with cooked brown sugar with Catuaba a highly energetic berry from Amazon reagion, considered also aphrodisiac. *Doces artesanais: 1- Doce de leite (Dulce de leche, a cream made with slow cooked milk with sugar), 2- Doce de abobora (A pumpkin Jam) ,3- Cocada Cremosa (A coconut cream made with slow cooked coconut and sugar), 4- Goiabada (a guava jam). And the cheese with the desserts it's the queijo coalho the same you had on the mashed yucca and in the Baiao de dois (the rice and beans) *Tubaina is a Tutti-Fruit soft drink really traditional in the countryside of Brazil and became popular in Brazil on the past decade thanks to that brand you tried. Personally the dish you should have tried from Mocoto in my humble opinion is the Braised Pork Shank (Joelho de Porco) served with roasted pumpkin squash and Cuzcuz it's to die for! Hope to see you in LA sometime and will take you for a Brazilian food tour here if you miss brazilian food by them! hahaha
You did it! George, I hope you liked your feast. Mocotó represents a new chapter of a Brazilian Cuisine. In São Paulo, in the 80's 90's, it's common to eat in an Italian restaurant or French restaurant. At that time, nobody cared about rice and beans, or "torresmo." They said, "its a bar thing." Fortunately, this thing was going to change when a world famous chef, Ferran Adrià, came to that restaurant. After his visit to him, many things have changed. Our culture that was not valued by ourselves gained an importance between Brazilian chefs. Anyway, that pork crackling or pig skin, that you liked, it takes about 2 days to make. By the way, I worked there a couple of years ago, as a cook. Yeah, all desserts there have a lot of sugar. This never changed since I left there. Nor me, and family like that sugar-bombs dishes when we go there. We split our dishes as you guys did.
what a lie,i love to see a foreigner..speak for the original brazilians mocoto is and crispy pork skin is from the north east!! it was first cooked in there and introduced elsewhere in brazil
what a lieeeeeeeeeeeeee new chapter my foot ahh.my grandmother born in the north east,,,,has been eating mocoto since the 1900s,,,,this dude..talking nonsense here..all there are north easterner food.. inclusive the beans and cheese,except the doce de leite
Hey George Nice video!! Im from northeast, bahia, you could try bahia food in the consulado da Bahia restaurant in São Paulo , they have moqueca and acarajé. Please try it😊😊
Last year, we almost look same, skinny n messi, now you look cool n smart n iam still same😅. I will also try to go out around n b like you from now on George senpai. Dattebayo👍👍👍💗💗💗
One thing about Brazil: sugar cane is one of the main products that move the country's economy. It is so popular that you can expect people to add great quantities i their food. Thats why every thing is so sweet.
Interessante essa coisa dos doces brasileiros. A maioria dos gringos dizem que são doces "demais" . Goiabada e Doce de leite ;-; DELÍCIA do jeitinho que gostamos haha.
Teve outros em vídeos passados, não? Mas porém com um nível pior. Se ele aparecesse em BSB, seria ótimo encontrá-lo mas vai ser difícil ele aparecer por aqui. Sou professor de inglês, e é sempre algo bom encontrar um Gringo pra conhecer um pouco mais da cultura.
if you really want to drink cashew juice, go to a supermarket, buy 1 bottle of "concentrated cashew juice" (suco de caju concentrado), put 20% cashew juice concentrate to 80% of water, 1 spoon of sugar (up to your taste) and mix. The result is a not very transparent yellow drink. But you can also find this juice in places that sell "salgados", coxinha etc ...
You should eat the yuka with the meat. And you must coat the pork in farofa. Unlike Japan where food is eaten separately, in Brazil, food must be mixed and combined.
You´ll get chocked up if you don´t slice a little the meats... It´s not portioned for mouth here. You´ll need to walk a lot after all of this brazilian food! lol
Great video !!!! All the fruit sweets and also the doce de leite are traditionally eaten with a slice of cheese. Some sweetooths will not botões with cheese though hahahaha
said an arab man in brazil,,when the 90% of the "mineiro" food and carioca rj food come from🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂the north east their food even does delicious..is not the most,,it is a bigotry from your part we also have nice food in rio de janeiro,sao paulo,ahhh goias..mato grosso..belem..etc.. north east etc thus stop your nonsense and bigotry ahmed! from egypt!! hhahhahaahahhhh
Hi George!! You were close to my home!!! Brazilian desserts are normally veeeeery amai. But it is important to try. Congrats!!! Enjoy and have a nice time!!!
You have been experienced some great things, I am só envy... Shikashi Akemi San, sansei nagara nihongo jouzu, omedetou. And you, George, you must tô visita Ubatuba beaches.
Our dessert are soo sweet because Brasil in the 16th, 17th and 18 th Century is the great sugar producer in the world, and sugar was soo expensive. Then, you show your richest way with sugar dessert.
Mocotó is the one of the highest quality restaurant here in São Paulo and Brasil also. You are lucky. After tried the worst coxinha ever ( at subway station) you had the opportunity to have dadinho de tapioca ( tapioca cubes) one of the most copied appetizer here, and Chef Rodrigo ( one of the owner ) is who invented it.
Hey George, really like your videos! One hint: brazilian people like to mix foods on the plate... that's why when you taste them separately they can seem a little bit intense or weird. Next time, try to mix rice with the beans and the meat, you'll notice an intense richness of flavor and textures. For example the "sweets" you tasted it are better with a salty or neutral counterpart (i.e white brazilian cheese). Farofa is never eaten alone, you always mix it with the beans stew. Guava jam are eaten with bread or cheese.
Ok, I’ll mix them next time 👍
I hope George reads your valuable hint! Indeed, "tudo junto e misturado", all together and mixed is the brazilian food taste!
Indeed, farofa is eaten mixed with feijoada, or even over meat pieces of "churrasquinho" (in sticks). But I prefer to eat them separately...
And those sweets with lots of cheese or "requeijão" (cheese cream)...

You should taste the cheese with all the candies... pumpkin candie, milk candie (doce de leite), guava candie (goiabada) and coconut candie (cocada).
The meat you tasted is dried by salt and it calls carne de sol (sun meat) because it takes 1 day to dry (sun to sun). Regarding beans we in Brazil have a lot of kind. Feijão de corda (rap bean) is very common in northeast but not that much in São Paulo.

Brazil is the biggest sugar cane producer in the world. People here are used with sugar in everything. Maybe thats why dentist here is so cheap.
Oh really? Haha Then there must be a big demand for dentists 🦷
You can totally mix them all together as people mentioned, they come in different containers we just get a little of everything and take a spoonful of them all, you decide (i would've totally dipped that beef into the purê (the french purée) it looks so good)
Yeah I’ll mix it from next time!
try eating the beans on top of the rice, it's the most common way we eat it here (some Brazilians eat the beans under the rice too or the beans on the side of the rice but it's common to mix them and taste both at the same time )
Ok, I’ll try that from next time!
Loved your videos!!! Loved!!!
3:05 it's the same in Italian, so now you know something in Italian, too! 😉😂
😂👍
Ohhhhh mannnn rsrrs I lived the last 6 years in USA, many friends are coming from Ireland and US to visit Brazil with me, I have good places to take you here in São Paulo and in my city, Rio de Janeiro, you are going to love it!!!!
I'm glad you visited the Mocoto! Its a must go in Sao Paulo, I grew up going there and Rodrigo is a cool guy I worked with him for a while here in Los Angeles, he is so wholesome!
I'll breakdown what you had in case people reading the comment section and got curious and wanna visit and have some of the dishes can learn a bit:
*Baiao de dois: is a traditional northeastern with their main components mostly composed of rice, beans, dry-meat or bacon and cheese.
*Mandioca Cozida: Cooked Manioc/Yucca, usually cooked with butter and salt.
*Farofa de Cuscuz: Traditionally made with Yucca Flour Stir Fried with seasoning and often with some protein as well such as bacon, in this case is made with couscous, an influence of the middle-eastern cuisine common in the Northeast brazil.
*Feijao de Corda: a type of black-eyed pea, made into a stew.
*Pure de Mandioca com queijo coalho: Is Mashed Yucca and brazilian cured cheese (tha same you ate on another video on a churrasco I believe it was on Christmas you ate cheese skewers, that's the same cheese).
*Carne de Sol: Is a Dry Aged on Salt and brown sugar a cut of Silverside of Angus Cattle, them grilled on charcoal served with pimenta biquinho (a sweet pepper from Brazil) and roasted garlic.
*Dadinho de Tapioca: The Tapioca Dice, that was ACTUALLY CREATED BY RODRIGO ON MOCOTO. So that is the ORIGINAL DADINHO DE TAPIOCA!!!
*Torresmo: Pork Belly with the Crackling (Also known as Chicharron in other latin countries).
*Pudim de tapioca: A Pudim made with tapioca and cachaca caramel
*Sorvete de Rapadura: is an Ice Cream made with rapadura a candy made with cooked brown sugar with Catuaba a highly energetic berry from Amazon reagion, considered also aphrodisiac.
*Doces artesanais: 1- Doce de leite (Dulce de leche, a cream made with slow cooked milk with sugar), 2- Doce de abobora (A pumpkin Jam) ,3- Cocada Cremosa (A coconut cream made with slow cooked coconut and sugar), 4- Goiabada (a guava jam). And the cheese with the desserts it's the queijo coalho the same you had on the mashed yucca and in the Baiao de dois (the rice and beans)
*Tubaina is a Tutti-Fruit soft drink really traditional in the countryside of Brazil and became popular in Brazil on the past decade thanks to that brand you tried.
Personally the dish you should have tried from Mocoto in my humble opinion is the Braised Pork Shank (Joelho de Porco) served with roasted pumpkin squash and Cuzcuz it's to die for!
Hope to see you in LA sometime and will take you for a Brazilian food tour here if you miss brazilian food by them! hahaha
Oh I should’ve tried that one! See you in LA☀️
Other cuisines are known to be very spicy, but Brazilian cuisinie is the sweetest of all!
Loved this one! You meet such nice people! It's so cool how you're like instant friends with your subscribers :)
Esses doces pro paladar japonês é muito doce, até eu que estou no Japão muito tempo já não consigo comer muito, acho muito doce!
e faz muito mal comer esse tanto de doce
A comida desse lugar é supervalorizada. Qualquer outra casa do norte em são paulo é bem melhor. Pra inglês ver
You did it!
George, I hope you liked your feast. Mocotó represents a new chapter of a Brazilian Cuisine. In São Paulo, in the 80's 90's, it's common to eat in an Italian restaurant or French restaurant. At that time, nobody cared about rice and beans, or "torresmo." They said, "its a bar thing." Fortunately, this thing was going to change when a world famous chef, Ferran Adrià, came to that restaurant. After his visit to him, many things have changed. Our culture that was not valued by ourselves gained an importance between Brazilian chefs.
Anyway, that pork crackling or pig skin, that you liked, it takes about 2 days to make. By the way, I worked there a couple of years ago, as a cook.
Yeah, all desserts there have a lot of sugar. This never changed since I left there. Nor me, and family like that sugar-bombs dishes when we go there. We split our dishes as you guys did.
Oh I see! Thanks for the info😊 I didn’t know it takes 2 days to make the pork one!
what a lie,i love to see a foreigner..speak for the original brazilians
mocoto is and crispy pork skin is from the north east!!
it was first cooked in there and introduced elsewhere in brazil
what a lieeeeeeeeeeeeee new chapter my foot ahh.my grandmother born in the north east,,,,has been eating mocoto since the 1900s,,,,this dude..talking nonsense here..all there are north easterner food.. inclusive the beans and cheese,except the doce de leite
Hey George Nice video!! Im from northeast, bahia, you could try bahia food in the consulado da Bahia restaurant in São Paulo , they have moqueca and acarajé. Please try it😊😊
Thank you for watching!😊 Yeah I really wanna go to Bahia and try foods there!

19:00
🥰🥰🥰 Queijo com Goiabada (Romeu e Julieta)😋😋😋
One thing about Brazil: sugar cane is one of the main products that move the country's economy. It is so popular that you can expect people to add great quantities i their food. Thats why every thing is so sweet.
Ah I see. That totally makes sense!!
Interessante essa coisa dos doces brasileiros. A maioria dos gringos dizem que são doces "demais" . Goiabada e Doce de leite ;-; DELÍCIA do jeitinho que gostamos haha.
Foi doce demais para mim hahaha
Hideki mt fofinho
Fiquei esperando pra ver se ele reconhecia o dadinho de tapioca e o torresmo de quando ele experimentou feijoada, não me decepcionou e lembrou! 🥳🥰
😊👍
Rapadura Ice Cream is so good
You should go to Balneario Camboriu, the Brazilian Dubai, and Florianopolis, the magic island.
Ok!👍
my favorite restaurant in São Paulo
👍👍
Jeorge conheça os lençóis maranhenses
O único doce brasileiro que realmente acho bem doce , o famoso melaço de cana de açúcar . Aquelas rapadura do melaço .Só de lembrar até arrepio .
Isso sim é doce kkkk
😋👍
impressao minha ou rolou um clima hahah amooo
Finalmente alguém proficiente em inglês para falar com ele.
👍
Teve outros em vídeos passados, não? Mas porém com um nível pior.
Se ele aparecesse em BSB, seria ótimo encontrá-lo mas vai ser difícil ele aparecer por aqui.
Sou professor de inglês, e é sempre algo bom encontrar um Gringo pra conhecer um pouco mais da cultura.
O cartunista que estava com a esposa e o filho falam inglês muito bom.
tds até agora se comunicaram muito bem com ele, para de ser chato
Dude, it's making me feel hungry as hell.
Told you the Northeastern food was the best! So glad they took you to taste it
It was amazing!!👍
Next you need to try "Tropeiro" if you haven't tried yet...
Ok!👍
if you really want to drink cashew juice, go to a supermarket, buy 1 bottle of "concentrated cashew juice" (suco de caju concentrado), put 20% cashew juice concentrate to 80% of water, 1 spoon of sugar (up to your taste) and mix. The result is a not very transparent yellow drink. But you can also find this juice in places that sell "salgados", coxinha etc ...
Ok! I’ll check it out!
Eu sou do nordeste George, atualmente moro em São Paulo ❤
You should eat the yuka with the meat.
And you must coat the pork in farofa.
Unlike Japan where food is eaten separately, in Brazil, food must be mixed and combined.
George, you're too sweet too 😂
😂
george it would be nice for you to go to the soccer stadium in são paulo or rio de janeiro
Ok!👍⚽️
Allianz Parque ( Palmeiras ).
Finally a person who can propperly comunicate with you, and a beautiful sansei 🤭
You´ll get chocked up if you don´t slice a little the meats... It´s not portioned for mouth here. You´ll need to walk a lot after all of this brazilian food! lol
That’s why I walk a lot everyday 👍
Great video !!!!
All the fruit sweets and also the doce de leite are traditionally eaten with a slice of cheese. Some sweetooths will not botões with cheese though hahahaha
Hahaha thank you for watching!😊
Brazilian food is impressive ! I'll keep my mind open regarding the desserts. There's always hidden gems out there in traveling.
Yeah I love Brazilian food!😊🇧🇷
George u should stay longer in Brazil and record videos with more CZcamsrs of gastronomy in São Paulo.
George, if you're still in brazil and want to try the best of Brazilian food I highly recommend you come to Belo Horizonte and eat some mineiro food
Ok!👍
@@GeorgeJapan Café Palhares has the best KAOL (Cachaça, Arroz, Ovo and Linguiça) and has won our boteco food festival multiple times 😉
said an arab man in brazil,,when the 90% of the "mineiro" food and carioca rj food come from🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂the north east
their food even does delicious..is not the most,,it is a bigotry from your part
we also have nice food in rio de janeiro,sao paulo,ahhh goias..mato grosso..belem..etc.. north east etc
thus stop your nonsense and bigotry ahmed! from egypt!!
hhahhahaahahhhh
Hi George!! You were close to my home!!! Brazilian desserts are normally veeeeery amai. But it is important to try. Congrats!!! Enjoy and have a nice time!!!
Yes it was such a nice experience! But it was sooo Amai!! Lol
You have been experienced some great things, I am só envy...
Shikashi Akemi San, sansei nagara nihongo jouzu, omedetou. And you, George, you must tô visita Ubatuba beaches.
Ok! Yeah Akemi-san speaks Japanese well :)
I miss that, food in Brazil is so good! 🤤
LMAO George you tried the dulce de leche with cheese rofl it was sup to go in the guava XD
Of course it's raining, São Paulo, land of drizzle after all.
You sure liked this cuisine ok 👍😁🥩🥥🍨🥣kkkk
I liked the foods!👍
Saying "tin tin" and drinking a yellowish juice must be interesting 🤣🤣🤣
Delicias =Oishii. Very good.
Seria legal você vir para Fortaleza, no ceará conhecer as praias, você iria adorar!
Our dessert are soo sweet because Brasil in the 16th, 17th and 18 th Century is the great sugar producer in the world, and sugar was soo expensive. Then, you show your richest way with sugar dessert.
Oh I see! Thank you for the history lesson!
George senpai 🥰🥰
Arigatou for watching!😊
Mocotó is the one of the highest quality restaurant here in São Paulo and Brasil also. You are lucky. After tried the worst coxinha ever ( at subway station) you had the opportunity to have dadinho de tapioca ( tapioca cubes) one of the most copied appetizer here, and Chef Rodrigo ( one of the owner ) is who invented it.
