Appetizers are usually small snacks using local dishes, such as cod fish balls or small bread balls infused with cheese called “pao-de-queijo”. Sandwiches are also generally classified as an appetizer or snack! If you are looking for something light, try one of these establishments.
In Brazil, there are numerous “bares”, or “barzinhos”, (pubs, little pubs) where people gather for happy hour to have caipirinhas, cocktails, beers and other drinks.
Snacks are widespread, many are dependent on the local foods, but many are typical all over Brazil. Polenta frita (fried polenta), pao-de-queijo (biscuits baked with cheese inside), salami Italiano, fried chicken wings, cod fish balls (deep fried pastry made with wheat flour, egg, and shredded cod fish), various cheeses, and olive platters.
It is very common for bars, called botequins, to offer cafe-com-leite (coffee with milk) served in a shot glass, plus fresh french bread with butter for breakfast. This is a little unusual for most people, who see pubs as a night time venue.
People commonly get together in bars to enjoy sports events. Normally, these are soccer matches, which happen frequently and not only during the World Cup. Brazil has soccer tournaments throughout the year, and everybody has their favorite team. It isn't uncommon to see significant numbers of people promoting their team.
Brazilian pubs range from very informal, lower class establishments to very formal, higher end places. Unlike most North American pubs, most of these pubs are wide open to the public with no formal entrance.
The minimum age for drinking in Brazil is 18 years old, and if you look older than 18 it is very likely you won’t be asked to show your ID. Public drinking is allowed in most cities, and public areas.
