A sign on the window of Café Brasil reads “On Vacation Sept 11 – 25.” Sorry to say, folks, it’s a permanent vacation. Those beat-up venetian blinds have been lowered for the final time. The P-D’s plugged-in Joe Bonwich reported last week that Café Brasil’s owner/chef Jorge Carvalho was preparing to start twisting the skewers at a new Brazilian restaurant, Coco Louco Brasil, located in the former Melange/Kirk’s space. At seemingly constant odds with the city of Rock Hill, Carvalho decided to quit the battle in the county and move his churrascaria show to the city. So if Jorge’s “on vacation,” it’s a working one…his new place opens in 3 weeks. –George Mahe
