Muqueca Restaurant

Muqueca Restaurant for 6 month, half-anniversary!
Brazilian Restaurant in Cambridge
Cambridge street is filled with cute local stores, and Muqueca was one of them.
The waiter there is really really nice and cooperative. He showed a sad face when we objected his dessert offer. :( Sorry, we'll get dessert next time...!
Appetizer: Brazilian Crab Cake (Casquinha de Siri)

Main: Fish Moqueca (Moqueca de Peixe); Moqueca means Brazilian style seafood stew with cilantro, tomato, and onion. Served with rice and pirao.

Mariscada: Shrimp, crabmeat, mussels, and squid with cilantro, tomato, onion, and coconut milk. Served with rice, farofa, and plantain moqueca.

Yummm.....! I noticed I love Brazilian rice. Allrecipes.com says the rice is fried in oil with minced onions and garlic before cooking it. No wonder it's so good....
I was so full and happy :)
