By: Adriel Reveles La Querencia, a restaurant located in Tijuana about 5 minute drive from the U..S. border. La Querencia is not your typical Mexican restaurant, carne asada and fish tacos! When one stands outside this restaurant, one might think it is a modern style facade of Mexican restaurant. Inside it is more of rustic cabin with trophy animals such as ducks and deer with a modern twist.

By: Adriel Reveles A couple of years ago, I remember going to a very unique restaurant with my parents for my birthday. This was a restaurant in downtown San Diego called Rei Do Gado, Portuguese for King of cattle. Rei Do Gado is a churrasqueria style steakhouse. The churrasqueria style originated in southern Brazil in a region called Rio Grande Do Sul by several centuries ago by the gauchos (cowboys). One might ask what is this concept like? Imagine juicy and tender cuts of meat in skewers slowly roasting over mesquite flaming fire. There was such a broad list of meat skewers to choose from. The list usually includes cupim (zebu hump), picanha (sirloin steak cap), turkey breast wrapped in bacon, lamb leg, linguiça (Portuguese sausage), and many others. |
