Food Cooked on a Wood Stove
Pousada Zago is a lovely country restaurant right inside Águas da Prata, located just one block from our house.
This is the first restaurant we ever dined in, here in Águas da Prata.
When you come to visit here be sure to bring a big appetite as the helpings are quite large. Often we have had to take home more than half of what were served. The food is excellent and the service matches the food.
We arrived to find these ladies from Campinas with a gentleman from Spain having a beer on the verandah.
Inside the restaurant the tables were waiting.
The restaurant has rooms available too. The dining room seats about 60.
We went back to the kitchen to see what was happening. They were preparing noque.
These people from Poços de Caldas have started their meal.
They do not have a menu for the restaurant. Everyone gets the same meal.
First came a delicious macaroni soup with bread rolls.
This was followed by a simple lettuce, cucumber and tomato salad.
The next course included the noque (bread and flour, rolled, cut in pieces then boiled) along with zuccini and rice.
Then a small beef was added.
Brasilians love beans so a delicious bean dish is added.
The desert we had was a candied banana and cheese.
Sebastião and Bernadette stand proudly before the wood stove in their kitchen.
All the food you just saw would normally be for one person. We were used to their large servings so we just ordered a single serving and shared it.
Pousada Zago is located in Águas da Prata, Centro at Rua. Dr. Wolfgran Ferreira, 187. Telephone (19) 3642-1177.
