Q: About the security situation in how what?

A: Rio is a rather strange place.The city's slum areas occupied over one third of the city.North City are all areas where the poor, even in South City, a lot of hills, and densely built a house to go afar, have become the red hills, rich areas and poor areas is not too isolated.Law and order in the northern part of the relative rather confused a bit, but not so scary legend.In Rio you'd better find a local guide or a buddy to play in groups of three will be more secure.

QJo: What are the different Brazilian cuisine, which recommended the Rio hotel to us?

A: Brazil's signature dish is black beans meal (Feijoada), is the black beans withtype all sorts of smoked dried meat, a stew made of a small fire.At first do this dish, use the full kitchen, do not cut the material, because it is a slave to eat.Now, pig tail, pig ears, pig feet and so became a slow simmering boil boiled material.In Rio, the weekend lunch of black bean meal has become a local custom, all meals (Completa), including rice, crushing sliced cabbage (Coure), butter, cassava (Farofa) and slices of orange.

Celso said that if a week would be crazy not to eat black beans meal.Brazil dish taste the most special, devaluation Bahia food.Only from one of the" Dente" palm oil and coconut milk, it is not difficult to find by Africa.Bahia people like to eat chili, and many vegetables are used in peanuts, cashews, shrimp for the ingredients.Bahia's most famous dishes are: Vatapa (with shrimp, shrimp, fish, peanuts, coconut milk, dende oil, condiments and bread soup decocted); Moqueca (with fresh fish, shrimp, crab orSeafood plus Dende oil, boiled coconut milk sauce made); Xinxim De Galnha (chicken dinga Dende oil, dried shrimp and peanuts fried foods made); Caruru (shrimp add okra and Dende oil mixed with copy made); Bobo De Camarao (condiments are cassava and mud shrimp, Dende oil and coconut milk); Acaraje (a small pancake, fried peanuts with Dende join Vatapa, shrimp and spicy red made).Although these dishes delicious, but greasy palm and coconut milk may make some people's stomach does not digest.
