Brazilian Barbecue or ‘Churrasco’ (pronounced as shoo-RAS-koo) was the traditional meal of the ‘gauchos’ or cowboys of Southern Brazil for centuries before spreading to Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo.

Dining has become very fashionable at excellent Churrascarias’ (restaurants specializing in Brazilian barbecue) around the world; and here in Singapore, Samba Brazilian Steakhouse Churrascaria takes pleasure introducing this delightful ‘Churrasco’ specially prepared and served by our renowed Brazilian chef.

‘Churrascaria de Rodizio’ simply refers to the special way of serving the customers, where ‘Passadors’ bring carefully barbecued meats on skewers from table to table and slice generous portions onto your plate.

Located in the heart of Katong, an area familiar and dear to Singapore, Katong Village was the former site of Joo Chiat Police Station. Since 1987, the police station has shifted and in replacement was a variety of exotic eateries. One of which is Samba Brazilian Steakhouse Churrascaria.

In its history, Katong has always been identified as an idyllic sea-side retreat, where the rich and influential build grand villas and bungalows along sandy beaches. This ambience continues to today. Surrounding Katong Village is a delightful variety of ethnic shophouses, all retaining their individualistic laid-back charm and character of old. The former police station itself is a gem of pre-war architectural design. Many of these buildings are now also specialty stores where you may just uncover that unique treasure you have always been seeking.

Katong Village itself was converted from an operational police headquarters, to a hub of food and entertainment, as part of the urbanization plans of the 80s. With plentiful parking and extremely convenient access to various shopping locations, it has since became a favourite hangout of Singaporeans and foreigners alike. In the middle of this is Samba, devoted to bringing you the true taste and passion of authentic Brazilian Churrascaria cuisine.
