In the DMV for a week! Starting in Falls Church at the Eden Center, then...

I just posted my Fogo de Chao review in another thread. Let me see if I can cut and copy it here. It was a very nice experience with good food and an excellent staff.

Fogo de Chao is the real deal! Great valet parking set up at the Tysons Corner one and a very nice modern glass dining room with a super staff. I was dining on my own and they were going to put me in a sun filled hot corner but when I asked for a different table they immediately offered me a different two top.
They seated me and took my drink order and I had the mashed potatoes, polenta, Brazilian cheese puffs and fried bananas set on my table as well as both of my waters. The Pisco Sour (I was Jones’in for South America cocktails) was good not great. The two main waiters and the 4 or 5 meat skewer servers were all friendly and welcoming.
I started with the salad bar but I have to admit that it did not really attract much of my attention.

One thing they did that I like is that they left the meat menu so you can see the names of the meats in both Portugese and the American names of the cuts. I did not get all the skewers, but I got all the ones I had hoped to see.

Then I flipped my card to Green and the meat started arriving.
Oh.
My.
Goodness.
Simply outstanding.
A touch salty but I did not want even a touch of salsa or sauce.

Picanha

Fraldinha (bottom sirloin, looks like brisket?) was a bit firmer but delicious.

Medalhoes com Bacon were almost too rich. The bacon was so flavorful that I could not taste the steak that well. They had a very slight taste of liver, which seems odd but it was still rather good.

Cordeiro, a touch dry but tasty.

Linguica, my least favorite.

I wish I had taken notes. I guess my photos are my notes.
