Real-Life Conversation
Talking About Food and Drinks With Locals
Olá! Vamos conversar. Food is the second favorite Brazilian conversation topic after family. A few phrases turn every meal into a chance to learn.
Asking for recommendations
O que você gosta de comer aqui. Qual a especialidade da casa. O que está fresco hoje. Brazilians answer with real opinions, not menu recitals.
Reacting to food
Que delícia. Tá ótimo. Adorei. Use them generously when food is good. Brazilian cooks and waiters feed off the feedback.
