Happy Thursday! For team lunch today, the theme is Brazilian cuisine. Luckily, Braziliant Café is nearby! We ordered online at around 10:00 AM for pickup at 1:00 PM, and when we arrived at the restaurant, it was packed! Don't get me wrong, it's a tiny spot, but we're still pleasantly surprised at how many people were there.
I ordered the Traditional Brazilian Rice and Beans Plate with top sirloin cap beef because Gemini recommended it when I asked which one to try. The beef was perfectly seasoned and worked so well with the rice, beans, and vinagrete (tomato, onion, and parsley). I also used all the toasted farofa (cassava flour) for crunch. It was perfect.

We enjoyed our lunch in front of the Vancouver Art Gallery under the summer heat.
Below is a list of dishes I have tried from Braziliant:
- Brigadeiros (chocolate, coconut, coffee, and dulce de leche)
- Codfish Croquette (bolinho de bacalhau)
- Pão de queijo with ham and cheese
