The Simpsons are in Brasilia

On our first morning in the city, during our quest for groceries, we walked by a restaurant called "The Simpsons", in reference to the infamous cartoon characters. In spite of any other choices - the street we were walking on specializes in fabrics - we walked in with our hungry children. Expecting the worst of junk food galore, we were pleasantly surprised to find a buffet of fresh foods, and some barbecued meat. Similarly to other buffet here, everything is weighted at the cash, which is great when eating out with small ones. We pay for what we eat. It is not China cheap, but really reasonable.
The Simpsons will later become a landmark for our family, as we will drive by it every day, on our way back from school.
We also learned later that the amazing buffet is not available at night, and that the whole neighborhood comes by to have a drink and a bit, customers filling the place, and spilling on the sidewalk and grazed area on the side of the restaurant. A very popular hangout.
