Tropeiro (City Centre)

• We decided on dinner with friends at Tropiero on Argyle Street
• Brazilian buffets are far superior to other buffets
• There is the normal buffet cart area then there are gaucho chefs going around with massive skewers of meat
• You have a small mat on your table which is green and you turn it round to red when you want them to no longer offer you meat
• Nor is it particularly pretty food but it is usually damn tasty and is a dining experience instead of just a meal
• When we arrived at 4.30pm on a Sunday night for our booking the restaurant was very quiet but most restaurants are at that in betweeny time
• There were seven of us and the quiet restaurant that just meant that there was more meat for us so we certainly weren&rsquo
• We needed to be in and out by 7pm because we were going to The Stand comedy club afterwards to see a friend doing stand up and we left plenty of time reserved for meat eating beforehand
• There was a black bean stew with pork in it that got the thumbs up and a couple of us tried the fish stew too
• There was some spicy roast potatoes and cabbage with garlic to accompany all of the meat
• My only criticism with the hot buffet is that the online menu tells you a selection of things that might be available and mashed potatoes was one of the offerings
• So think that it should be made a staple that is always out
• I preferred the couscous with cucumber through it
• The meats going around the tables on big skewers (tip never load your plate with food from the buffet and then be too full to try them all)
• I remember that the chicken offerings were chicken breast wrapped in bacon
• ) ribs because I was too full at that point but the others seemed to enjoy them
• The gammon joint and leg of lamb were also appetizing but my favourite non beef meat had to be the pork sausages
• I think there was only one cut of beef that wasn&rsquo
• First to reach our table was the diced beef marinated in garlic oil and I&rsquo
• That is as far as my memory goes with the meat because after that they were also coming around with meats that we&rsquo
• T worry about how it is given to me
• Those a bit more particular you can ask for a piece from the outside that is more cooked or wait for a bloody inside piece
• Tropeiro (City Centre) for us is a real treat of unapologetic gluttony
• T tend to stop eating until you are full to bursting
• S a great place for groups with the dining experience being a good talking point but I wouldn&rsquo
• Nobody considered dessert and we were out by 7pm to head over to The Stand as expected
• Was nice because sometimes a quiet restaurant means poor service because staff are not necessarily on the ball as much
