Authentic Brazilian cuisine Manchester
The "Bem Brasil Deansgate" in Manchester, England, is a vibrant highlight of the local dining scene and is part of the small but successful Bem Brasil chain, which specializes in authentic Brazilian cuisine. Located in the heart of the city, it is known for its Churrascaria tradition, a type of Brazilian steakhouse that traces its culinary roots back to the Gauchos, who roasted meat over open fires. Since its opening, the restaurant has established itself as a popular gathering place for meat lovers and fans of South American flavors, attracting both locals and tourists seeking a unique and generous dining experience. The atmosphere is characterized by Brazilian joy of life, which is further enhanced by live music on certain evenings.

The menu is the heart of the restaurant and revolves around the so-called Rodizio system, where Passadores – meat waiters – roam the room with large skewers of various types of meat, carving the food directly at the table. Particularly noteworthy is the Picanha, a juicy cut of beef grilled over charcoal and appreciated for its tender texture and intense flavor – a classic of Brazilian cuisine. Also popular is the Frango com Bacon, chicken breast wrapped in bacon and served perfectly seasoned, offering a harmonious combination of spice and crispiness. Side dishes such as Farofa, roasted cassava flour, complement the meat dishes with its slightly nutty flavor, and Feijoada Light, a lighter version of the traditional bean stew, still retains the depth of South American flavors. After the meal, there is often a sweet note with grilled pineapple sprinkled with cinnamon – a simple yet delicious dessert that rounds off the meal.
