What's New On the Patio

The Mural Is Finished!

Come check out the latest artwork from renouned Brazilian artist, Cathleen Sidki.

Throughout Yemanja Brasil Restaurante's history, Cathleen has made many artworks contributions. She worked all spring on her latest artwork, and completed it on June 11th just in time for her return to Brasilia, Brazil, were she resides.
This art piece is a brilliant work - Warm Sunset: painting, acrylic on brick . In this mural, Cathleen has captured the flora and fauna of Brazil's tropical rainforest. Featured in the painting is a sloth, a spider monkey eating fruit, an alligator, an ocelot, several butterflies, as well as other insects and plants indigenous to Brazil's rainforest.

Tell us what you think of our well, appreciated donated artwork.
Thank you Cathleen Sidki for another beautiful piece of art. It's fantastic!
More pictures available in our gallery section on our main website.

RFT - Restaurant 2008 Poll

The votes are in...
And the winner in the category of Favorite South American Restaurant is...
Yemanja Brasil Restautante.
Yes, that's right patrons. Thanks to your votes; you made us the 1st Place Winners in the category of South American Restaurant in the Riverfront Times' Restaurant 2008 Poll.

Not only did we win the 1st Place category, we also placed in the Top Five in two other categories. We got 4th place for Favorite Outdoor/Patio, and the other placing really shocked us - 2nd Place Favorite Mojito. Favorite mojito, what mojito? Since when did we ever make a mojito? Oh, it must be the "Brazilian Mojito" - the one without mint and club soda. Why, that's the Brazilian National drink - the Caipirinha, not mojito. We know what all you patrons meant by that, and we appreciate your votes. Maybe next year the RFT will have a category for the caipirinha. Caipirinhas now over 100,000 served at Yemanja.

Once again, thank you all for your voting. We appreciate your patronage.

Latest in Hot and Cold Dessert

Churros doce de Leite
Carmel filled Brazilian Donut

The hottest dish at Yemanja in not only hot, but it's cold. The latest rave of our guest have been our homemade Churros dessert. This dish features not one but two hot, golden-fried tubular doughnuts rolled in cinnamon-sugar, filled with fresh-made Carmel and is served around two cold, creamy vanilla ice cream scoops, then topped with more Carmel swirls.

Top your evening off with the hot/cold Churros dessert and an espresso or cappuccino - what a perfect combination. Inquire with you server for further details.
