Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Brasilia and the West right now.
As the capital, Brasília attracts citizens from throughout the country as well as dignitaries from around the world. You can find a variety of regional cuisines as well as international fare. Brasília also has plenty of "per kilo" restaurants, usually decently priced cafeteria-like places where you pay according to the weight of your plate. Barring the fish dishes, the food in the Pantanal is neither as interesting nor as flavorful as that found elsewhere in the country. That said, the food is hearty, and the meals are large; affordable all-you-can-eat buffets are everywhere.
This longtime favorite is the place to go for German cuisine. The laid-back atmosphere and no-frills decor draw those looking for authentic food and a great selection of imported beer and wine. Savor the rollmops (rolled thinly cut herring fillets) while you wait for your entrée. Good choices include the Eisbein (pig's leg with mashed potatoes) or Ente mit Blaukraut und Apfelpurée (duck cooked in wine served with red cabbage and applesauce).
