All you can eat Brazilian style

As the time of our departure was imminent, Patrick and KeKe took us all along with Carla and Anthony to their favourite 'all you can eat' establishment - Terere (rated 10 of 40 restaurants in JP on trip adviser if you're interested). It was indeed very good with many different types of food - Brazilian, Italian etc with a great salad bar and waiters circling the tables constantly with large skewers of various types of meat.
By this stage of the holiday I was pretty sick of meat and more meat so was delighted to find an entire sushi section which was a breath of fresh air after all the heavy food. And I pretty much ate only that.


Carla drove Patrick, KeKe and Anthony home whilst we decided to stick around the Tambau area for a few hours as the boys needed to walk off their impending 'meat sweats'. We strolled (staggered) aimlessly along the coast line, perusing a few more shops for a few more souvenirs.
The evening was ended at a kind of open air food court where we could only manage to fit in a few drinks around all the food consumed earlier. The waiters from each food operation stand waving their menu's and hissing at passers by to get them to come and sit at one of their tables - which is always nice. One particularly insistent waitress came across repeatedly to encourage us to buy tapioca which is like a sweet, sticky, white omelet but she was to be disappointed. Numerous vendors circled in entice us into buying their hooky DVD's - probably the most relaxing drink stop we've ever had.

Carla and Anthony arrived with the car at 7pm as we watched a march against government corruption rolled by and it was time to go.
