Brazil doesn’t just watch the World Cup — it throws a party for it. When the Seleção play, the churrascarias and botecos around the metro turn into supporter sections: yellow everywhere, a samba beat between goals, a plate of picanha in one hand.
Astoria is Brazil’s living room in Queens, and the Ironbound in Newark is the heavyweight across the river — both go full-volume on matchday. For the big games, show up early; the good tables go fast.
