Seafood Brazil has a wide coast, along with rich river channels, which aids the availability to cheap seafood, like fresh water shrimp, mussels, deep ocean fish and so on. There are fresh water crabs and two distinct types of ocean crabs as well: the caranguejo and the siri. Fishing on the beach is very usual, and many people will collect their own seafood. Restaurant-wise, ordering good quality seafood can be difficult. Like most locations in America, seafood in Brazil can be overvalued. Keep your eyes open for signals of neighborhood or fresh fish obtainable - it generally means the food will be far better and less expensive.
In Brazil, there are many “bares”, or “barzinhos”, (pubs, little pubs) where everyone seems to gather for happy hour to have caipirinhas, cocktails, beers and other drinks.
Snacks are popular, many are dependent on the local foods, but many are common 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 quite typical 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 very unusual for many people, who see pubs as a night time venue.
People typically gather in bars to watch sports events. Commonly, these are soccer matches, which happen frequently and not only during the World Cup. Brazil has soccer tournaments throughout the year, and most everyone has their favorite team. It isn't unusual to see massive 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.
