The kilo restaurant is a big hit in São Paulo



I try to avoid kilo restaurants like the plague, but I'm aware I'm in the minority. Buffet restaurants where you pay by weight are very popular in São Paulo. Paulo Cabral explains how it all works in a BBC video (the image takes to the video page, BBC doesn't like embedding).
In recent years, a new kind of eating experience has thrived in the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo - the self-service or "kilo" restaurant.

Customers pick as much as they want from a wide range of dishes then weigh their plates to find out much they have to pay.The kilo concept has proved so popular that gourmet restaurants are beginning to adopt the idea.
