While we were in the interior, we also enjoyed a snack that both my husband and I love. Beiju. Think crepe--only different. And for my gluten-averted friends, your answer to the crepe because it is made with tapioca, not wheat flour. We had beiju at this little place right on the town square in Sao Sebastiao, and they were excellent!

Step-by-step making of the beiju---
1. Tapioca flour, called "goma de mandioca", is put in a metal form on a hot grill

2. Brush on some butter

3. Add filling--we had a "Romeo e Julieta" which is guava paste and cheese, my fave.

4. Time to eat!

Do I blog about food a lot???
