Plant-based South American Flavour: Our Guide to Meat-Free Rodizio Dining

At Fazenda we pride ourselves on providing a welcoming and inclusive experience for all of our guests. Although our renowned Churrasco features prime cuts of meat, we also offer a diverse selection of non-meat dishes for our pescatarian, vegetarian and vegan guests. In this blog, we highlight our non-meat specialties, featuring two beloved plant-based dishes our guests can enjoy.

Moqueca

Let us introduce you to our colourful vegan 'Moqueca', a fragrant tomato and coconut milk stew, brimming with sweet and fresh vegetables. Seasoned with turmeric and cumin, its spicy warmth contrasts with the sweet smoothness of coconut beautifully. Tomatoes lend their rich umami flavours to the stew, as sweet peppers and onions add a delightful crunch and aroma to this soulful dish. Accompanied by fluffy white rice, crisp butternut squash chips and sweet fried banana, this vibrant one-pot wonder is bursting with comfort. Moqueca is set to transport you to the sunny Brazilian coastline with each hearty spoonful.

Beetroot & Goat's Cheese Pasta

Our decadent vegetarian 'Beetroot & Goat's Cheese Pasta' fills tender tortellini pillows with roasted beetroot and creamy goat's cheese for a sweet and earthy flavour experience. We finish the pasta parcels with a citrusy basil garnish that incorporates brightness into the earthy decadence of the dish. The herbal notes and acidity serve to cut through the richness of the cheese, making each bite a truly refreshing journey for the palate. Topped with crispy pea shoots for an added textural crunch, this combination represents vegetarian Italian-influenced cuisine in every bite.

All of our dishes are freshly crafted to highlight the unique flavours of each key ingredient, our non-meat dishes being no exception. When dining, guests eating from our non-meat menu will have access to our usual Rodizio accompaniments. This includes both our Market Table selection, boasting an array of continental cheeses, fresh salads and vegetables, as well as any of our Brazilian hot side dishes, served by request directly at your table.

Whether you choose to indulge in our classic Churrasco Experience or prefer our plant-based options, our extensive menus have something for everyone. We welcome all guests to join us at our table for a uniquely South American dining experience, accented by the rich culture and flavours of Brazil. You can discover more of our meat-free creations on our Menu page.
