Your primary guide to fine Ouro Preto food and drink!

The authentic Ouro Preto food and drink will add to the unforgettable memories of your trip – IF you know what to eat and where to find it.  Brazil is known for having very different and distinct dishes and beverages that you will never experience anywhere else on earth.  There are a few dishes that you absolutely need must try when visiting Brazil. The closest Brazil gets to a national dish is feijoada.  Feijoada is a black bean stew that is cooked fresh to order and generally served on Sundays. Travelers must also eat at the churrasco ( Portuguese for Brazilian barbecue) restaurants.  No one does barbeque like the Brazilians. We also recommend stopping off at a rodizio, where they will continue bringing you servings of a various cuts of meat indefinitely.  The fun (and filling!) part of the experience is that the servers will keep bringing more and more meat out until you ask them to stop.

No Ouro Preto food and drink guide would be complete without touching on some of the fine drinks offered at Ouro Preto restaurants. We all know that Brazil is the world's largest coffee producer, however, oddly enough, the national drink is cachaça, a local brew of alcohol derived from sugar cane.  If you’re looking for something to give you a buzz quickly and easily, you will find cachaca in the always-potent caipirinhas, which is a mixed drink interspersed with Brazilian fruit juices . Guaraná is one of the most popular soft drinks in Brazil, similar to America’s Coca Cola, but with a different taste. The most popular draught beer is known as chopp, which is best thought of as a tasty lager. Be sure to pick up a couple bottles of Brazilian wine, as they are growing in popularity and prestige by the day.  Brazilian wine is a vital part of the array of authentic and culturally diverse Ouro Preto food and drink every traveler should seek to indulge in.

But where does one go to enjoy Ouro Preto food and drink? Our prime choice is The Casa do Ouvidor.  The Casa do Ouvidor is a prime location if you’re looking to sample authentic Ouro Preto Cuisine. Guests are seated on the second floor above the Rua Direita, a romantic, picture-perfect dining area that catches the gaze of warm glow cast from scented, multicolored candles and priceless antique lampshades.  The menu offers a bevy of South American meals and beverages for the curious and cultured traveler.  The best part? The prices for this delicious food range anywhere from nine to fifteen US dollars!  With a peaceful setting in an elegant restaurant, a delicious meal and smorgasbord of new, invigorating tastes to light up the senses for the price of a few gallons of gas in America, you truly cannot go wrong!
