What You'll Get
Brazilian fare varies greatly by region, unlike Twinkies, which are life's one eternal constant. Dine on diverse flavors with today's Groupon: for $30, you get a Sunday brunch for two at Sinhá (a $60 value). Brunch seating is available at 2 p.m. and 4 p.m.
The Brazilian-born owner of Sinhá, Jorgina Pereira, prepares Brazilian homestyle favorites with an artistic twist, which has garnered praise from ABC7's Hungry Hound Steve Dolinsky. On Sundays, an all-you-can-eat brunch buffet indulges bottomless appetites with international dishes including quick-fried plantains and farofa, a grainy cassava meal sautéed with olives, onions, carrots, and raisins. Batches of Brazilian-style black beans pair perfectly with beef and pork, and basmati rice in vegetarian broth compete for taste bud attention with thinly sliced collard greens in olive oil. Specialty chicken-, beef-, and seafood-based dishes quell carnivorous cravings and come flavored with a variety of hot sauces and chutneys, like trees in the rain forest. After devouring buffet main courses, patrons indulge in the dulcet tones of desserts and brazilian coffee.

About Sinhá
Brazilian-born chef Jorgina Pereira relies on ingredients such as cassava root, collards, and coconut to infuse stews and stir-fries with tropical flavors at Sinhá. Pereira prepares her homeland's cuisine at home, welcoming guests into her historic brick townhouse for intimate meals in the mid-afternoon and private events in the evenings. In addition to doling out tropical comestibles at its brick-and-mortar location, the staff takes a custom catering menu on the road with Brazilian musicians, dressing for events in a Carmen Miranda-like uniform of flowing dresses and fruit-filled head dresses. Sinhá is a local favorite, and was even featured on ABC 7 Chicago News in a restaurant segment.
