GORDO’S BACKYARD STEAKHOUSE ~ PASADENA
A chef named Marcelo aka “Gordo Cooks” is operating a wood-fired, Brazilian-inspired steakhouse at his place in Pasadena. Gordo’s Backyard Steakhouse will serve this Saturday, with reservations available by DM.
“I am trying to recreate an atmosphere that is very close to a backyard barbecue in Brazil,” Marcelo tells L.A. TACO. “People can expect good music, lots of protein, beef ribs, steaks, sausages, and veggies. I also make a fried rice to accompany that protein, and some fried polentas for appetizers.”
