as horrifying as dave and phineas may be by my carnivorous tendencies, how do i *not* try a restaurant with a review starting like this:

"A MERE curiosity five years ago, rodizio -- the Brazilian cross between a Pennsylvania Dutch Amish country smorgasbord, a Miami Beach all-you-can-eat early-bird-special buffet, and a carnivorous cookout hosted by Satan -- is now serious business." 

anyway,

Baldorio for two. 
the MacCallen 25 for me,  Buckler for him.
Gauloises Caporal for me, Macanudo for him.
Bluenote/Iridium for two.
The favorite black suit for me.
The vixen dress for him.
