Via Brazil Catering

My uncle got married recently, in a small ceremony at my parents’ house. My mom had a big hand in planning the wedding. She rented chairs, ordered the cake, and crafted centerpieces off instructions from the internet. She was hoping to cook before her back gave out, and when that happened, she found Via Brazil to cater.
They did a wonderful job on fairly short notice. They showed up at the house with a ton of food and equipment and enough staff to both cook and serve. The menu centered on Brazilian barbecue, and they brought stuff to roast meat on spits and everything. The staff was super polite and competent, and dinner ran smoothly, with each table sharing a bunch of food family style. (The usual churrascaria set-​up would’ve been pretty distracting.)
The food was excellent, definitely a couple cuts above your average catered dinner. There was a first course of cheese bread and Brazilian salads – an apple salad and salpicao de frango, or Brazilian chicken salad. The cheese breads were lovely, warm and gooey and fragrant with cheese, and the salads were fresh and substantial. For our main course, we had giant platters overflowing with Brazilian barbecue along with a full spread of sides. The meat was excellent quality. The picanha, or sirloin cap, and the wagu beef were tender and hearty. The smoked sausage had great snap and flavor, and even the chicken was fantastic, juicy and enhanced with garlic. For our sides, we had creamed corn, Brazilian rice, tomato vinaigrette, and onion vinaigrette. All of these were great, the creamed corn decadent and the rice fluffy; the tomato and onion cutting through all the heavy meat. For dessert we had wedding cake, but also some pineapple slices, grilled Brazilian style with a dusting of cinnamon. A nice, light way to end any Brazilian barbecue meal.
We had lots of leftovers, and I appreciated them greatly. My brother and I stayed over at our parents’ house the night of the wedding and ended up eating another full meal around midnight. I took some leftovers home, too, and they heated up beautifully. I’d highly recommend hiring Via Brazil to cater your next big event. The people are great, and the food is top notch. Inquire at
