Happy Spring Yall, I'm so happy to share that Fogo de
Chão, has launched a
light and refreshing seasonal menu that features nutritious recipes and bright
cocktails sure to put everyone in the mood for warmer
weather. From a nutritious
gluten-free salad and vegetarian soup to Brazilian-inspired beverages, new
spring selections are now available at all Fogo locations nationwide for a
limited time.
“Seasonality plays a significant role at
Fogo, just as it does in the open air markets and farm tables of Southern
Brazil,” said Larry Johnson, Chief Executive Officer of Fogo de Chão. “Over the
last few months, our award-winning culinary team has been hard at work crafting
craveable, new menu offerings full of fresh ingredients that we know our guests
will enjoy this spring.”
A selection of
Fogo’s new seasonal items include:
· Ancient Grain Salad – This gluten-free recipe features a
powerhouse of superfoods, including quinoa, chia seeds, toasted kasha and wild
rice with diced apples, pomegranate and oranges all tossed in a house-made
citrus vinaigrette.
· Asparagus and Spring Pea
Salad – Fresh
asparagus, spring peas and arugula are tossed with goat cheese, lemon zest and
herb vinaigrette and then topped with fresh cracked pepper for a refreshing
bite.
· Sweet Pea and Asparagus
Soup – This vibrant
vegetarian soup is made with sweet spring peas, asparagus and a blend of
parmesan, cream and fresh ground black pepper.
· Smoke & Honey – Monkey Shoulder Whisky and peaty
Glenmorangie Original are combined with honeyed ginger and lemon for a smoky
take on a classic sour.
· Guava Do Sul – Belvedere Vodka is shaken with guava
puree and fresh lemon, then topped with La Marca Prosecco to create a crisp and
sparkling cocktail.
· Andean Punch – Fresh strawberries are muddled with
guava and mint, then topped with sparkling soda for a refreshing non-alcoholic
treat.
On Sunday March 25th, I had the pleasure of checking out some of the new items at the Fogo De Chão in Dunwoody -- This was my first time at the restaurant so I didn't know what to expect and I'm happy to say it was an amazing experience I went in the afternoon at 2:30 and it wasn't really crowded which was perfect my server was everything she educated me on the Fogo De Chão culture and the rundown so I had to try the Guava Do Sul cocktail which was perfection then I headed to the market table to get my greens, the servers come around to serve the meats and they have a cool green light/red light system to let them know when are ready for more or to stop. If you are in the mood to try a new dining experience be sure to add them to your list!
