Meat lovers are in for a treat, as it’s been announced that a new all-you-can-eat Brazilian rodizio is opening in Altrincham.
Brought to the Trafford market town by one of the restauranteurs behind Fazenda, new opening Jardim Rodizio will offer diners top-quality Brazilian-style steak in a bottomless dining setting.
Fazenda co-founder Robert Melman is behind the new concept, which will be launching inside the Old Post Rooms in Altrincham later this year.

Jardim, which translates simply to ‘garden’ from Portuguese, will be Robert’s first foray into opening his own restaurant since leaving the Fazenda group.
A project that began in lockdown, it will now be brought to life – taking over a building that has stood empty for over a year.

In traditional rodizio style, meats here will be served directly off the cooking spit – sliced and plated right at your table, adding a theatrical edge to your Brazilian steakhouse experience.

Diners will pay a fixed price, with servers bringing around a host of different options to your table until you can’t possibly muster anymore.

Popular cuts found in rodizio restaurants tend to include maminha beef (a tri-tip sirloin steak exclusive to rodizio restaurants), frango com bacon (chicken wrapped in bacon), and linguiça (a mild Brazilian sausage).
Whilst the full details of the menu are still yet to be revealed, Robert has mentioned that there will be a salad bar in the 120-cover restaurant.

If the Jardim salad bar is anything like the legendary one at Fazenda, we expect that this will be a reason to visit all on its own. Veggies and vegans should fear not.

Robert told the MEN: “I wanted to create something new where I can add the personal touch again.
“Jardim has been a lockdown project of mine and I am loving the excitement of bringing something new to Altrincham.
He also revealed that he had not been able to say goodbye to his team when departing from Fazenda, who he considered as being like family, and commented that “as brands grow bigger that personality can be lost.”

Greater Manchester public urged to help get people ‘off the streets and on their feet’ before Christmas
Emily Sergeant
Locals are being urged to help get hundreds of people “off the streets and back on their feet” this festive season.
As the temperatures told colder by the day, and Christmas creeps closer and closer, Greater Manchester Mayor’s Charity is bringing back ‘1000 Beds for Christmas’, and the massively-important initiative is aiming to provide 1,000 nights of accommodation to people at risk of homelessness before the big day arrives.
Forming part of the ongoing ‘A Bed Every Night’ scheme, this festive fundraising mission is designed to provide food, shelter, warmth, and dedicated vital wrap-around support for those who need it most.
The charity says it wants to build on the “incredible success of 2023”, which raised more than £55,000 and provided 1,800 nights of accommodation.
Stockport-based property finance specialists, Together – which has supported the campaign for the last two years – has, once again, generously pledged to match every public donation for the first £20,000 raised.
Unfamiliar with the ‘A Bed Every Night’ scheme? Since 2017, when rough sleeping peaked, the initiative has helped ensure a significantly-higher rate of reduction in the numbers of people facing a night on streets in Greater Manchester than seen nationally.
The landmark scheme has given people the chance to rebuild their lives, while also giving them access to key services and opportunities that allows them to stay off the streets for good.
Despite the scheme’s recent success, organisations across Greater Manchester are under “a huge amount of pressure” to meet the demand for their services this winter, and given the current economic outlook, household budgets will continue to be squeezed – leaving people on the sharp end of inequality and poverty.
