I am a lover of meat cuts and I would highly recommend Texas du Brazil. Texas du Brazil is a family owned restaurant. This restaurant is specialized in meat cuts such as; beef ribs, chicken breast wrapped in bacon, filet mignon, garlic picanha, pork ribs, and many other different types of meat that are served with amazing sides like mash potatoes, sweet fried bananas, black beans, white rice, and many others.

    This half Brazilian and half American restaurant offers a table of about as many seasonal appetizers a person would know. It includes salads, soups, charcuterie, veggies, about any type of sauce, fruits, and many other. Also, it offers different desserts that are mostly international, such as milk rice, carrot cake, crème brulee, or Brazilian papaya cream. But, for those who don’t really like to experience different types of flavor in desserts, there are also those desserts that mostly everyone know; such as; coconut cheese pie, chocolate cake, lime pie, or pecan pie.

    My favorite plate at Texas du Brazil is garlic picanha with two different sides; sweet fried bananas and just about any type of cheese, since I love cheese. But I would highly recommend feta cheese and actually eat it with their sun-dried tomatoes.

            The first time I visited this restaurant 5 years ago. My family and I were going on vacation to Orlando and someone highly recommended us this restaurant and that is how I had the opportunity to tried it and I loved it. I loved it not just because their meat is perfectly slow cooked in an flame grill, but also because this restaurant’s environment is just breath taken. The environment is very naturalistic filled with beautiful flowers everywhere, low light, and most of the times they play soft Brazilian music which makes the place even better from my point of view.

            This restaurant is located in eighteen different locations in the United States, one in Aruba and another one in Trinidad. I have tried Texas du Brazil in 14 different places since it is my favorite restaurant and I was very satisfied with the consumer attention and the quality of the meat. Therefor, the prices are very high. But, I would definitely say it is worth it. There is variety, flavor, quality, and splendid service offered which is all a restaurant needs to pleased their consumers. Try it, I have not yet heard a bad comment about it.

I am a freshmen majoring in Clinical Psychology. My favorite hobbies are playing soccer, going shopping, yoga, creating beats; specially dubstep genre, traveling,

    I hope this course will prepare me as a student to use a variety of hardware and software to develop technology-based communication skills needed for personal and professional activities, as it is describe in the Digital Application syllabus. Also I would like to learn more about programs such as excel, power point, editing photos, searching the web in a faster way etc.      

The blog I chose is called Tumblr. Tumblr is a social networking website, that is owned by Tumblr, Inc. This website allows users to share with the world any content they would like to post. Tumblr allow users to choose if they want their blog to be public or private. Users can post any type of information they want to share, such as; pictures, videos, essays, etc.

      Tumblr is a very credible website because most of the times you know the person who is posting and most of the posts are very credible, since this website is more about sharing people’s personal thoughts rather than just posting real news, in other words; there is never a wrong answer for any post if you just share your opinion and let people stay with there’s. Actually there are tumblr websites that post things about one specific topic; such as; art, fashion, music, specific brands, tattoos, or any other topic that the person is interested in. I have being a tumblr user for almost 3 years and I love it. It interests me because I am really into fashion, music, and art, so I like reading what other people know about it. Also, there are users that share the latest fashions trends, others that share paintings about my favorite artists, and you can follow just about any user that feel good with sharing his/her opinions with anyone. There are millions of users that are willing to share their artwork or their own music and I think that is very cool.
