Business Connection After Hours at Tucanos Brazilian Grill

The Virginia Peninsula Chamber of Commerce (VPCC) is pleased to announce the third Business Connection After Hours of 2015 will be hosted by Tucanos Brazilian Grill in Newport News’ City Center Thursday, April 30 from 5 to 7 p.m.

The event is free and open to the community. Both VPCC members and non-members are encouraged to attend and connect with new people in the community.

Tucanos Brazilian Grill in City Center is located at 11820 Fountain Way, Newport News.

Tucanos Brazilian Grill, a VPCC member, offers a dining experience rich in flavor and Brazilian heritage. The Brazilian tradition of grilling, or CHURRASCO (shoe-HAS-ko), is a fusion of South American and European cultures. At Tucanos, meats and vegetables are carefully selected to ensure that only the freshest cuisine is served. The meats are tastefully seasoned and cooked on skewers over open-flame grills. The skewers are then brought to the table where sizzling portions are sliced onto plates. Diners can choose as many different flavors and cuts as they like.
