Matchbook Monday - Picanha
Today’s matchbook comes from Picanha, a churrascaria (Brazilian barbecue), in Palm Desert, California (map it).
This dining tradition dates back hundreds of years, and originated in the pampas of Brazil, with gauchos cooking marinated meat on long skewers oven a fire. The style has been updated and modernized, with meats are carved at your table. The service, at its best, is part food delivery and part performance. You can find a churrascaria in most large cities.

Thanks for stopping by for a look Neil.
Over 600,000 items? WOW! That’s quite a collection.
