Cabana: Brasilian Barbecue- Restaurant Review

South America. When you hear those two words together you just can't help but get excited. This goes for traveling, for music, for passion and for food. 
Cabana is a brasilian barbecue restaurant. When i heard this I pictured skewers flying around the restaurant and mounds of meat on my plate. It wasn't like that unfortunately.

Very busy menu

As you can see with the menu, there is a lot going on. Typically starters at the top, then main courses and finished with the sides at the bottom. The main courses are split into the different food groups, chicken, lamb, beef and pork. Alongside this there are a few salads options and with a table full of ladies the majority went for this option. The two popular dishes were chicken salad and halloumi salad.

Chilli Chilli Lamb Lamb

I ordered the chilli chilli lamb lamb- basically lamb which arrived in skewers with veg and a side bowl of rice. The skewers are purely a novelty and a gimmick. The restaurant could easily just put the lamb on your plate and then bring this out, but from the portion size in the picture it wouldn't look right. I once full and the portion size wasn't a problem but the gimmick did annoy me slightly.


The food was nice- everyone at the table really enjoyed their dishes. The limitless tortilla chips that came with the guacamole was a fan favourite too. I felt stuffed after my meal and the two for one cocktail offer was welcomed too. I would say all in all that it was a bit on the expensive side and i wouldn't rush back to soon. I had a good experience at Cabana, thank you for my first visit.
