It also features achiote rice pilaf, clam and spicy sausage chowder, and much more. <\/p>\n<p>Churrasco means barbecue in Brazil. According to Wikipedia, Churrasco uses a variety of meats\u00ad\u2014pork, sausage, and chicken\u2014which may be cooked on a purpose-built churrasqueira, a barbecue grill, often with supports for spits or skewers. The meat may alternatively be cooked on large metal or wood skewers resting on a support or stuck into the ground and roasted with the embers of charcoal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Brazilian-inspired buffet dinner at Kili Caf\u00e9 and Terrace will also include a salad bar and appetizers, hot entrees including braised kale with garlic chips, penne pasta, and roasted sweet potatoes. <\/p>\n<p>It will also include wonderful desserts including the popular Spanish-influenced \u201cTres leche flan\u201d topped with fresh local fruits; \u201cBrigadeiro,\u201d a common Brazilian delicacy made from condensed milk, cocoa powder, butter and chocolate sprinkles to cover the outside layer; and \u201cCuscuz Branco\u201d (white pudding), which is a traditional Brazilian white pudding made from coconut and tapioca. It is a decadent pudding with just the right amount of sweetness and a perfect texture.<\/p>\n<p>Hyatt Regency Saipan Marketing Communications manager Maria Valentina Haberman said \u201cthe meals will be prepared by head chef de cuisine of Kili Caf\u00e9 &amp; Terrace, Inas Hocog. He was originally born on Rota, moved to the United States and learned about different kinds of cuisines such as Latin American, French, Western, etc. He recently moved back to Saipan, with the intent of staying for good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hocog, who was named after his grandfather Ignacio, said \u201cI\u2019ve had wonderful opportunities to study different types of cuisine around the world. And now, I\u2019ve been called back home to share what I\u2019ve learned through the years.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Hopefully what Hocog has done will inspire other local people to hone their skills and learn as much as they can abroad, but with the intent of coming back home and sharing what they have learned to the community. He has also tried his luck in opening a restaurant in San Diego, California called \u201cTio Chino,\u201d which is still operational today. <\/p>\n<p>Spend a wonderful night on Aug. 20, eating the best quality meat with various Brazilian dishes for a buffet dinner priced at  $48 per person and only $35 for Club at the Hyatt members which includes free-flowing sangria, beer, and iced tea.<\/p>\n<p>For reservations, call 234-1234. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kili Caf\u00e9 and Terrace brings \u201cChurrasco-Brazalian Barbecue\u201d on Aug. 20, 2016, 6:30pm at Kili Caf\u00e9&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":234334,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[12965,12966,7233,12967],"class_list":["post-234331","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-news","tag-cuscuz-branco","tag-experience-brazalian","tag-kili-caf-terrace","tag-spanish-influenced-tres"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/234331","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=234331"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/234331\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/234334"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=234331"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=234331"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=234331"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
