Last week I wrote about a bunch of foods to try this summer in Brazil, which is hosting the Olympics and has temporarily waived its onerous visa requirements. But there’s plenty more where that came from, and when you’re tired of feijoada and pao de queijo (if such a thing is possible) here are a few more foods that you don’t want to miss.

Every country seems to have a food that is “like a hot pocket” and the pastel (plural: pasteis) is the Brazilian version. These delicious foods are a quick go to food that are sold at small shops, bus stations, and occasionally as street food. They’re often filled with various meats and cheeses, then fried. One particularly delicious variety is called the Romeo and Juliet, and is filled with cheese and a sweet guava paste called goiabada.
