Fancy a Brazilian?

Men

Good things come in three, and a good thing indeed was Men of Meat 3 - Brazilian Meatival. With so much meat on so many skewers, brought to your table and carved onto your plate, us monkeys certainly went to meat heaven. All that meat for $42 per head? We think we will.

Let the meatening begin...

Palma Louca, the beer to eat meat to.

Rib me up my good man.

Silverside Tim admires a hot skewer of meat.

They might be small, but these chillies kicked our meaty arses.

The red knobs spelt the end of our gorging.

Palma Louca beer, and quite a few of them
A couple of vodka lime and sodas

The second Men of Meat has been run and won. If it was a race, it was traditionally Greek - it was a marathon. But when the platter eventually arrived, all was forgiven.

Venue:

Date:
24 October 2009

Attendees:
Adam Sirloin, T-Bone Glenn, Wagyu Aaron, Topside Bradley, Silverside Tim and special guests Rib Eye Ezra and Forequarter Dax.

What was ordered:
Kalamarakia - Tender marinated baby squid, pan fried to perfection
Saganaki - Sizzling kafalotyri, a delicious Greek cheese that melts in your mouth

BBQ Prawns - Our specialty char grilled prawns in a secret spicy sauce

Mixed Char Grilled Meat Platter for 4 - Souvlaki, quails, pork chops, glykadia, lamb cutlets, sausages & home made chips


And, somewhat sadly, Rib Eye ordered Elliniki Salata - Traditional Greek Salad. That's his one mistake made...

And this is what the platter looked like after the Men feasted...
What was drunk:
Mythos, carafe of house red, some soft drink
