Restaurante Paraiso da Carne do Sol

A visit to this Carne de Sol restaurant is almost worth a trip to Brasil in itself. It is impossible to describe how good these meats and side dishes are. Carne de sol is salted beef that traditionally was laid in the sun for a while before cooking, thus the term sun meat. I advise getting one of the combination platters of beef, chicken and sausage. If you aren't used to this kind of food, you will never forget it, and this is the best one I've ever visited. Also, don't forget an order of the fried or grilled cheese. There are wonderful surprises with this establishment, like the room for kids with the cribs. On one of our visits to Brasil we were able to get a table right in front of an open window to the room, and let our 2 year old sit in the crib and play when he got tired. I wish they had restaurants like this in the U.S.A. If you're ever in Salvador or within a 100 miles of Feira de Santana, this restaurant is worth the extra distance. You will not regret it. Also, even with skyrocketing prices of everything in Brasil, don't expect to spend a lot of money here. Dinner for about 6 will set you back about R$150. that's about $45 U.S. at current rates.

This is a very simple restaurant, looks like they started in their garage. However, in Feira it is my favourite the real local sertao food, the food of the dry and hot northeastern wilderness. Speciality carne de sol sun dried beef or goat meat. Feijao Tropeiro , beans mixed with some species and cassava flour, Aipim Frito great fried cassava, served as side dish to the fantastic barbecued goat ribs and goat liver.
