Tired with Thai? Over Italian? Why not try something a little different--Melbourne's only Brazilian restaurant and cabaret? Rio's is a churrascaria, or barbecue restaurant, serving a buffet of dishes from the Southern districts of Brazil. While eating, you are entertained on stage by a showy Vegas-style floorshow, featuring renditions of dances such as the samba and lambada and the native martial art, capoeira. Dishes include salads, pork and steak items, and feijoada, a rich stew of beans, ham and rice that is the national dish. Fully licensed. Definitely not your run-of-the-mill night out!
