I stopped by to see what was in the strip mall, check out the Fitness place. I saw this little gem and decided to stop in and see what they had.
Brazilian Eats and Treats -
Wow! đ€© oh my goodness, sweet as well as savory food items.
Can I just tell you the women were gracious and enjoyable to speak with! Very cute, clean, cozy inside.
Amazing selection of desserts, and near the register was where the savory items/ breads are.
I donât know what I liked best to be honest, but I canât wait to go back and try some of their lunch plates!
Hands-down, my favorite was this absolutely fabulous coconut dessert in gold foil. Even the woman behind the counter said she ate one almost daily!!
I would be hard pressed to find anything like this anywhere and I have eaten out A LOT!
Anybody who sees my reviews knows my favorite dessert is the Tres Leche at Miro Spanish Grille.
That is still the case - yep, absolute best trĂšs Leche anywhere Iâve ever had from New York to here in Charlotte.
However, if you love coconut? Youâve got to run and try this treat. I would be surprised to find anything like it anywhere!
There was another smaller coconut treat that you can see in the picture in the takeout container. It is very sweet for me, so I had to eat small bites, but it was really amazing as well! I personally could not eat the whole thing but I ate it over a couple of days after lunch or dinner as a treat. Everyoneâs preferences are different though so again this is something I would love to have you try and respond with your impression and opinion.
The big Golden square is cornbread and itâs definitely a different take on southern cornbread, which one would expect of course. I personally loved the texture and the flavor. This is more along the lines of what I look for in cornbread personally.
Please note, that white coconut dessert in the paper above the cornbread?
Thatâs the super sweet coconut treat and mentioned. I think they make it small for a reason lol! The flavor is very concentrated in a good way.
The donut or what I call the spiral donut? It wasnât bad at all. It is a very firm texture and dough. I donât know that I would get it again not because it was bad, just a personal preference and again that beautiful coconut dessert in the cold foil? Thatâs money for me! đ„čđ
She did say that they love Miros but the Brazilian Tres Leches is different. It was, but it very good and mine had strawberries in it. A lighter fluffier experience. đ€©
As for what I call stuffed breads/empanadas - very flavorful, fresh, and the handmade dough? Each one had a slightly different texture and taste - excellent. Oh, I will say that I really enjoy the minced ham, great flavor not too salty yet. Wonderful complement of ingredients.
Oh! And what I believe is a stuffed yucca item? It was stuffed with the chicken and the texture and again spot on with ingredients and combination of flavors. So so so good you have to eat it there or at least in the car, đ the outside is beautifully, lightly crisp with an amazing flavor and texture. I LOVE yucca, really really enjoyed it and cannot wait to go back.
As this is within a mile of where I live? I better join the gym next-door!
In any case, really great local spot, everything made homemade handmade in house. Professional gracious service. Worth the patronage and the visit!
Would love to hear what others have to say about their experience and what...
   Read moreWe came in with a larger group, none of us knowing anything about Brazilian food. Lo and the rest of the staff made sure to explain the food and flavors to us as well as make menu recommendations to us. All of which were incredible. The picahna was some of the best beef I've ever eaten and even the rice was the awesome, too. We also tried a pastel which had a crispy flaky pastry and the chicken and cheese filling was delightful! It was fried perfectly without being greasy and heavy on the stomach. I would also very highly suggest the ham and cheese filled fried pastry (I forgot the name of it) as it was also a favorite. To top it off, the passion fruit juice and passion fruit cake made me reminisce on my honeymoon, but was also the most heavenly cake I've ever put in my mouth. Blown away by not only the quality and flavor, but the kindness and...
