In Portuguese salt and pepper translates to sal and pimenta. They’re the simplest of seasonings but arguably the most important throughout a variety of cultures.
When Rogerio and Ruby Tregnago opened Gaucho’s Fire inside The Garage Food Hall they wanted to serve guests a mix of flavors through their Brazilian-style street food. Their favorites like the best-selling steak sandwich have delighted garage goers since it first opened. Now the couple is ready to introduce The Garage to an even wider variety of South American cuisine with Sal & Pimenta. Using a range of flavors and traditional techniques and spices, Sal & Pimenta will serve the classic flavors of Latin America but with a twist, presenting them on skewers, giving guests not only a delicious meal but a memorable and unique experience.
The couple can’t wait to continue to bring the tastes of South America to visitors of The Garage Food Hall when Sa1 & Pimenta opens in June 2022.
