Over the past year, I've been secretly enjoying the lunch salad bar buffet at Fogo de Chão in El Segundo, an outpost of the Brazilian steakhouse chain.
The salad bar... costs just $18. And once you add on the $14 single-meat option, you essentially get something close to an all-you-can-eat Brazilian barbecue lunch for just $32.
My love for Brazilian barbecue, or churrasco, can be traced back to when I was very young, gnawing on hunks of grilled meats as my family looked on.
Culturally, my family grew up Brazilian and Korean, which means celebrations and big meals always involved churrasco and endless parades of grilled meats.
