ABOUT THE CULTURES
In Brazil, family and friends are considered a strong pillar of Brazilian life. Brazil’s culture is centered around its music, dance, and festivals, which all translate into its cuisine. The meals are usually more relaxed, and there is greater focus placed on social interactions. Guests are typically served first, and portioning is extremely common to facilitate sharing among one another.
