Community Center Class: Gourmet Foods Around the World
Today might be a state holiday in the United States, but Hannibal was well aware that not all of the people on Fandom were aware of that, and he was quite content to hold class today anyway.
Particularly since "class" consisted of going somewhere lovely to eat.
He smiled at those who showed up as they waited for the portal.
"Good evening. Today is a holiday in the country we are nominally a part of. Apart from its own meaning, for many, it marks the beginning of summer, and as such, barbecuing - cooking outside over an open flame - is traditional. So, today we will be eating meat cooked over an open flame. But not in this country."
He waved them through the portal to a street in São Paolo. "Welcome to Vento Haragano, a Brazilian Churrascaria - roughly translated, a place for barbecue. Their specialty is meat - a wide variety of high-quality meat - and wine, also of a wide variety and high quality. You pay a flat price to dine; the sides are served as a buffet, so you may take what you like of them. The meat is brought around to the table on skewers, and you may tell the waiters how much you would like of each, and what sort of cut you would prefer. I encourage you all to experiment and determine what you like."
They walked in and were led to a small room to one side, where they would have somewhat more privacy than the main room. "The primary language here is Portuguese. I speak only a little of it, but many here will also speak English or Spanish. The maitre d' knows both, should you have questions."
He waved them to their seats.
