Wine, Cheese, and Chocolate
We escaped for three days of indulgences over Columbus Day weekend with a few friends. We explored the Wine Valley outside of Porto Alegre and then headed to a town with predominantly German-heritage inhabitants for some fondue and chocolates in Gramado. The entire trip was not only tasty but beautiful. The diversity of Brazil continues to stun.

Post #21: Pão de Queijo
Pão de Queijo or Cheese Bread is a delectable Brazilian treat enjoyed with cup of coffee in the morning (or afternoon). When hot, the center is still a bit soft and oozes cheesy deliciousness. These puffy little balls are tasty, addictive, and even gluten free! So far, they are my favorite part of breakfast in Brazil... my only fear is that if I enjoy them too much that I may turn into a round cheese puff!
For the uninitiated, I've included a video, below, and NYTimes Cooking's recipe.
