Salads including couscous, tabbouleh, hearts of palm, cipollini onions, and sliced tomatoes; and accompaniments such as sweet fried bananas, potatoes au gratin, jasmine rice and Brazilian cheese bread also are part of the meal.
Typically, the cost is about $45; $25 for salads only. For more information about locations and cuisine: texasdebrazil.com
