Churrasco, Coogee

Matt loves Churrasco. We head to Churrasco in Coogee for a nice meaty lunch. For those who don't know what Churrasco is, it's a South American term referring to lots of grilled meat! For $43 you can have unlimited barbeque meats, salads, vegetables and sides.

Churrasco is located right by the beach and has long slender tables. I like the fairy lights that hang from the ceiling.

Churrasco has a drinks menu which I have a look at. I order a Exotic Caipirinha ($14) which is Brazil's national cocktail with a churrasco twist. You can choose the option of various flavours with this cocktail so from the recommendation of the staff, I opt for Strawberry and Lychee. The Caipirinha is based on a sugar based liquor so the cocktail is naturally sweet and I enjoy the fresh lychees and strawberries that are muddled into the drink. Matt orders a Calyse ($18) which has a mix of passion fruit, apersol, passionfruit juice, strawberry and orange. It's a tropical cocktail with sweet tones from the passionfruit and is  mildly tangy.

Churrasco has a series of sides including baked potato, tomato rice and two sauces. The first sauce is the Chimmi Churri sauce which is a mix of Argentinan herbs and spices blended with garlic. The second is a tangy vinaigrette with a tomato salsa with olive oil and vinegar. There's also a small bowl of fries.  I like the sides, the chimmi churri sauce is delicious. The baked potato has a generous amount of cream and cheese which adds the moreish flavours. 

The first dish that starts off the feast is chorizo. There's two options of a pork chorizo and a chicken chorizo. The chorizo is tasty and Matt's happy. There's also a salad with lettuce with parmesan cheese.
