Beirute is a Brazilian sandwich hailing from São Paulo. It's influenced by Levantine cuisine, hence the name that refers to the capital of Lebanon. Originally, the beirute was made with pão sírio (Syrian bread or pita bread) that was stuffed with roast beef, lettuce, tomatoes, melted cheese, and za'atar herb and spice mixture.

The filling always goes between two pieces of Syrian bread, not into the pocket. Nowadays, the sandwiches are prepared with various other fillings such as steaks, chicken, fried eggs, and ham, but the Syrian bread remains a key ingredient of the sandwich.

A true Brazilian classic, Bauru is a sandwich consisting of a crusty bread roll without the soft bread inside, stuffed with melted cheese, tomatoes, sliced pickles, and roast beef. Bauru was invented in the 1930s by Casemiro Pinto Neto, also known as Bauru (after his hometown), a law student and a customer at the Ponte Chic restaurant in São Paulo who told the cook to make a special sandwich just for him.

Because the restaurant was frequented by politicians and footballers who loved the new sandwich, its popularity quickly grew and it became the restaurant's best selling item. Today, the sandwich still has an army of fans and numerous variations, for instance, using sliced ham instead of roast beef, or using sliced bread instead of the traditional French roll.

Similar to Mexican tamales, pamonha is a traditional dish made with fresh corn. The dough, or more precisely the paste, is made out of grated and juiced corn. It is tightly wrapped in fresh corn husks and cooked in boiling water. Depending on the ingredients, pamonhas can be either sweet or savory.

The savory varieties are usually prepared plain or made with chopped meat, sausages, or cheese. The sweet version of pamonhas is often made by incorporating coconut milk or coconut pulp in the dough. Pamonhas are traditionally eaten all year round in Brazil, but they are usually associated with Festa Junina, the annual Brazilian festivity celebrated throughout June, marking the end of the harvest season and the beginning of Brazilian winter. 

X-Tudo is an unusually tall burger originating from Brazil. Although not much is known about its invention, this burger (which means with everything or cheese everything when translated) has no fixed ingredients, but it always has many toppings.

They often include beef patties, bacon, lettuce, tomatoes, corn, melted cheese, sausages, and fried potato sticks or shoestring potatoes. This mammoth of a burger is typically served in paper trays, and eating it is no easy feat – most people can't get their mouth around it because it's so huge, which makes for a messy eating experience.
