Dining events: Texas de Brazil fetes meat month
Meat month
This isn't your mama's meat. Texas de Brazil has upped the ante during national meat month in January with a limited-time twist: peppercorn sauce. Known for its seasoned beef, lamb, pork, chicken and Brazilian sausage, meat is carved tableside in true churrascaria fashion. Prices vary. Reservations are recommended.
Texas de Brazil is located at 5 Woodfield Shopping Center, Schaumburg. Call (847) 413-1600 or see texasdebrazil.com.
