all right guys i am in brazil with you and rafa they are a fantastic youtuber pair that runs the
uh tour company rio4 fun right and uh you guys are gonna be showing me some amazing places to
eat here in rio we are in like a big food market in uh what is this area it's called latin shades
neighborhood by the way welcome to rio thank you we are so happy to have you
here yeah and let's explore this amazing market and see what is good to eat right
which one did you recommend
i guess like half and half yeah yeah oh thank you
okay sure thank you all right let's have a first sip of this magic drink
oh that is really nice very nice this is actually iced tea but like you said he mixed it with
lemonade right with lemonade some people do just here you know like yes iced tea but then would it
be super sweet yeah kind of but we usually make set up you know uh-huh but you have the option
just to have lemonade or just iced tea yeah but we like to mix cool that's the local way to do it
rough i think you should start with the pastry
when you yeah to like a street market like this one
it's kind of like mandatory you have the pastry you know okay okay you have one now sure you wanna
like uh mince meat cheese uh what would you suggest uh it depends like
how about maybe heart of bones what is that though i've never had that no okay all right
so what is the what is the brazilian name for this again
pastel pastel oh and the name of the flavor in portuguese it's called palmitto
yeah it's a vegetable right but it almost feels almost like creamy in there like
i think because of the dough oh it's really good
we are huge in oprah oprah's like a big thing for brazilians uh-huh we had like a huge african
influence so we cook a lot of dishes with okra that's the one we had heart of palm oh
wow he's a a vegetable right thing you know a lot of foreigners when they come to brazil they
never have before no definitely not scarlet eggplant this is also very good baby pumpkins
yeah cherry tomato and most of it is grown uh like here in brazil and stuff yeah
also but we also have like some foreign outside sure
i haven't had these since i was in nepal i think it's been a long time
so guys this is actually one of my favorite fruits that i don't think i have had
since i was in india i think it's custard apple in english i'll have to ask you what it is in
portuguese but it's this really interesting like white fleshy fruit super sweet kind of has these
black sort of seeds in the middle and it is like custardy and delicious
i wish we had this in canada like this is so delicious
you want it south or sweet uh sweet i guess would be good yeah you wanna like uh
why don't they usually have rougher coconut with with cheese cheese coconut with cheese
so wait it's tapioca coconut and cheese inside yeah exactly okay yeah tapioca it's the the
dough right out of the manual and then we have all the flavors like coconut cheese turkey pepperoni
banana nutella guava that's the tapioca flour right uh-huh the manioc starch uh-huh they're just
grating the cheese in the flour yeah and they cook in a hot pan real wow i like tapioca flake uh-huh
but that's so weird because like in canada when you say tapioca it
means like a tapioca pudding usually yeah actually with the many of with
the with the tapioca we make like over 100 dishes you know you had the tapioca pudding
like this yeah i like the mix of the salt
and sweet you know so it's a good combination yeah yeah the cheese
is nice and at the same time on the eggs a little bit crispy you see big red this part
a very unique kind of dough yes very different texture
is brazilian food spicy on a whole nother really
not really brazilian people don't like to eat spicy food but we do have a lot of
you know seasonings you know yeah all the spices from india you know yeah lots of indian spices
turmeric ginger yeah some leaves
so a lot of people you were saying actually come here for their grocery shopping right
it's less expensive than a supermarket yeah and pressure like for example here you can come here
shop you can buy chicken hearts chicken breasts
okay
what is this called again
you know cream with cashew and peanuts salad and
uh shrimp he's uh cooking right here right now oh
it's like a dough you know uh-huh and make those big balls wow that's so cool
that salad it's kind of like the brazilian salsa right like cilantro tomato
i love that all right so we got this dish that is definitely different than anything
i have ever tried before you just eat it like like a hamburger yeah sandwich okay
yeah the shrimp skins are actually very thin you don't even really feel them
yeah this one is small one you know it's kind of like fried shrimp
and then you have the ochre paste we call karu roof and then we it's have of like a
cream made out of peanuts but it depends on the recipe but usually they put peanuts
okay
this coconut is as big as my head i think let me give it a taste here
that is refreshing guys especially on a day like today
where the last first two days when i got here were actually not that hot but today the sun is
shining it's definitely over plus 30 and i can feel myself getting sunburned suntan even with
sunscreen on when i'm out in the sun too long so i'm gonna stay cool here with my coconuts
all right and now we got something that is like a type of cod fish balls or something
kind of probably minced fish that is deep fried
all right first bite of the crochet hot fish catfish
oh it's very good i like the potato in there yes there's like richness to it like sweetness right
i love it same as the akara chair uh it's good to order uh right after they
finish frying yeah so you can get like really hot and crispy
