Drawing on experience from his Austin food truck, owner Robinson Figueiredo plans to bring a Brazilian steakhouse to the former Stem & Stone space in Bastrop.

On the menu

Although a menu for the steakhouse had not been confirmed by press time, Espadas de Brazil’s food truck menu includes barbecue-style Brazilian plates, sandwiches, sides and drinks, such as:

  • Baby back ribs, served churrasco style
  • Gaucho plates with picanha and fraldinha, which are Brazilian steak cuts
  • Grilled chipotle chicken
  • Guarana, a Brazilian soda
  • Housemade Brazilian lemonade
  • Mandioca frita, or fried yuca
  • Picanha sandwiches, a popular menu item similar to a cheesesteak
  • Spicy garlic picanha, sirloin seasoned with sajun
