What are the best restaurants/live music/attractions in Cuiaba, Brazil?

Question

In Cuiaba for a conference next July- looking for places to eat/things to do that aren't necessarily listed in the guidebooks or tourist websites!

Answer 1

I could list a few websites, but since you are looking for local know-how rather than travel guide info, I advise you to post your question on the Brazilian version of Yahoo answers: Yahoo Respostas.

An English-speaking Cuiabá resident might reply, but your odds would be much better if you could try it in Portuguese.
