It's Vegas Baby!

Do me a favor, Rich, if you're not a vegetarian, go to a Brazilian BBQ place called Yolie's on paradise, near the hard rock.

Have the buffet for me. It's the only thing about Vegas I miss.

Thanks, I might try it if my wife will agree. I went to a Brazlian BBQ outside of L.A. on a business trip. You had a stick in the middle of your table that was painted red and green. If you kept the green side up waiters would come to your table with skewers of meat, sausages, squabs, etc. Most of the items were just roasted meat and chicken, but there were some odd things like chicken hearts

It was fun.

I found a review of Yolies . It looks like the same deal.


and another

At Yolie's, as at many restaurants of this genre, the routine is simple. If you order the grill ($26.95), the meats just keep on comin'. At Yolie's, dinner starts with the aforementioned soup or salad, and bread, and then a dish is delivered that's filled with side dishes -- in this case potatoes, squares of polenta, lima beans and carrots. We also were brought a bowl of a really wonderful sort of fresh sauce or salsa that tasted of parsley, cilantro, olive oil and garlic.

And then the parade began. Servers brought a succession of meats impressively laced onto huge swordlike skewers, which we'd earlier seen cooking over a fire separated from the dining room by a glass window. They'd slice off a serving and then go on to the next table. The idea is that you sample each, and then you can have all you'd like of your favorites.

I may be a little off on the order here -- it was a dizzying array of meats -- but the chicken was first and that was a good intro, deeply marinated to give it a wonderful flavor and grilled just enough, so that it was thoroughly cooked (always a good thing with poultry) and yet still wonderfully juicy and succulent.
