Food: Lots of very good, exotic fruit, therefor lots of crazy fruit juices sold in Juice Bars. Everything that could be sweet is way sweeter than you expect. Meat, Fish, Sushi all very good and inexpensive. Sandwitches (sanWee-gee) and places where you can pay for a plate of food by weight abound.
Drinks: Beer (shoppe) is O.K., best to go with Caipirinha just not with Pitú (known as shrimp juice here). Guaraná Antarctica is also very nice.
Driving:
fullflex bi-fuel system. Top 3 brands: VW, Fiat and Chevy.
Language: Everyone speaks very fast. Use the phrase "tudo bom" (tu-do bon) and/or "tudo bem" (tu-do bayn) as much as possible--it means "everything cool?" and everything is always cool. Also, when meeting somebody, you get to say "Oi" like a London punk rock bitch-head from the mid 70´s.
Pets: Very high concentration of veterinary clinics, pet grooming and pet supply stores. People love cats and small/medium sized dogs.
