Good Eats Around Town

By Kristen Taufer

#1. TUCANOS BRAZILIAN GRILL

Can you say 'Churrascaria'? Maybe not, but you can still eat at one. Tucanos is a steakhouse, Brazillian style where the server comes to the table with swords filled with meat-- top sirloin, chicken, sausage, pot roast, grilled pineapple, and don''t forget the chicken heart or brahma bull. It''s all you can eat so there''s no excuse to go home hungry!
