Denver >Food & Dining > Cafe Brazil
4408 Lowell Blvd, Denver, CO | Directions 8021139.77728 -105.0346
M Closed, Tu-Sa 5pm-10pm, Su Closed
Neighborhoods: Berkeley, Northwest Denver
Cafe Brazil is the most romantic restaurant in Denver! – We go to Cafe Brazil almost every other Friday and we can't get enough of it, it is intimate, cozy & fun!!! Their food is amaizing, I don't think there is anything else like this in Denver. Great vine selection.
We love the service, atmosphere, people. Their waiters are very nice. We love Geno, he is our favorite - very smart, friendly, professional, always will go an extra mile to make your night special!
Great restaurant - Cafe Brazil! – THIS RESTAURANT CAME HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. WE LOVED THIS PLACE! GREAT FOOD, GREAT PEOPLE. HIGH-END, BUT VERY FRIENDLY AND WELCOMING!
DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS PLACE....!!!!! – We arrived to this restaurant and since we did not have reservation, they indciated that since they had a cancelation they were able to seat us in 1:15 minutes -crazyyyyy!!! they told us to go ahead and wait in the bar area, which they don't even have bar stools/chairs, please if you cann't afford a better service to your customer, close your doors!!!!!
After this experience I will never attempt to try this place, its not wurse my time or my money.
Great Food, Great Service – I've read some of the other reviews and feel the negative ones are pretentious drivel. If you're a stickler for service, then you'll go when the crowds aren't so thick, which is what I did. Also, Brazil is a very large country, so anyone stating that the cuisine at Cafe Brazil is not authentic must surely have eaten everywhere in Brazil (get over yourself)! I couldn't have designed a better restaurant experience. The food was fabulous and the service was excellent. I also appreciate the fact that they haven't spent a lot of money on decore. To me that means they're spending their money on the right stuff---the food and the servers. In the end, that's all that really matters. Good job, Cafe Brazil!
I felt like I had gone to an EVENT and was so sad to leave! – Oh - My - Gosh - I thought I had died and gone to heaven. When I walked in I instantly hooked into the beat of "Bate Forte o Tambor " - authentic Brazilian music. I was dancing while I was shown to my table. Be sure to reserve well in advance. I was told I would have to eat in the bar when I reserved, but they made a place for me in the main room when I came. I was literally dancing in my seat while waiting for my menu. The energy here is electric! Cool! Hip! All the waiters serve with a very happy smile and high energy. They have 4 high quality speakers placed around the room, and while they didn't dominate the conversation, the music created the hypnotic effect of feeling you are on a sidewalk cafe/restaurant in Copacabana, with the Atlantic ocean waves crashing on the shore across the street. I had the Moqueca de Peixe and it was a PERFECT 10! Did I say it was perfect? It was DELECTABLE!!! While I was waiting for my food I made a trip to the rest room. During that time, my soup had arrived. When I got back to the table, my soup had been covered with a plate to keep it warm, and my napkin had been artfully rolled into a scroll and draped across the top plate. Let me tell you, this is the best continental service that is RARE to find in America. The service is beyond what we are used to seeing here, and is at the caliber of what we would only see in a 5 star restaurant. But this place IS laid back, so it's not intimidating service. Expect the best of the best here. It's a great place for a second date, edgy, fun, cool. There were plenty of people in there in their 50's as well as some in their 20's and 30's. I just can't say enough good things about this place! I want to go back weekly. When it was time to go, I was actually sad to leave. Walking out to the parking lot, I had that same immensity of feeling that one has after seeing a great play, or having been to a great symphony, that you were totally mesmerized and taken over by some form of art. That's Cafe Brazil!
This is a wonderful spot for a romantic date or a business meeting (I've done both). The service is great, with just about everyone who works there stopping by your table throughout the night. The food is delicious, tends to be on the spicy side, so consider yourself warned. Your meal is presented as artwork, just beautiful. I was there last time with a large group and everyone had a different entree... all were delicious. You won't be disappointed.
Well worth the price – I was sorry to read that LuvDenvFood had such a disappointing experience. Perhaps requesting the table you'd like vs. being unhappy with what you're given would've worked. Please try again, their service is almost always spot on (I've never, ever had the experience you did). I wish they'd open for lunch - they are pricey and it would give people the opportunity to try the cuisine without such a monetary commitment. That said, the food here is absolutely exquisite. I've tried almost everything on the menu and have yet to find a loser. You just can't beat fresh, fresh, fresh!
Overhyped and priced...put your nose up – Okay, so I thought Brazil was supposed to be layed back and jovial. Not so.
We walked in, looked to the left, and there were two tables with people at them, the remaining 18-20 tables were empty. So where are we INSTRUCTED to go? The bar area...did i mention we had an infant with us! Then, he tried to seat us at a two seat table, yes there were three of us, and this was also right next to the door.
Disappointing, mainly because I had high expectations and the service was almost irresponsible as they had their framed "5280" etc posted. Plus, the nerve to serv $20+ entrees while you sit on plastic lawn furniture? I'll pass. Too many fantastic options in Denver with just as good food, but outstanding service, and very well priced.
Overall, the place was stuffy, pushy, dismissive and just plain snobby. Really? Are YOU doing me a favor by seating me and allowing me to eat there. No thanks. We left after the water was served and the liquor menu was shoved in our face and BTW the menu was not that impressive. Try another restaurant.
One word: Fantastic – I have to say that I was truly surprised and impressed by this restaurant. The food was amazing from start to finish. I have to rave particularly about my fiance's dish... a Chilean white fish with a Mango/Pineapple/Macadamia Nut butter. It was one of the best things I have ever tried in my life. This restauarnt is a hidden gem and in different cities the lines would be out the door.
Great little neighborhood restaurant – I love the food and the drinks are especially tasty, good for a girls night dinner or a nice romantic dinner for two.

First off, in this picture I was recovering from a major abdominal surgery and had just got home after 2 weeks in the hospital. "Kat", yes this is his name, was the best medicine for my recovery. His name is Kat because he is the 2nd cat that appeared at our home and adopted us. The first one was about 15 years ago and was a kitten, so we named him "Kit". If another cat should ever decide that we are worthy of being his family, we plan to name him "Bar". That will then have given us cats through the years with the names of Kit Kat Bar. And who can resist that?
"Kit" "Kat" "Bar"

UPDATED W/ROOM PICS...What do you think of this daybed? PIC
I found this on CL in my area. $80.
I dont know if the mattress sets down some in the from or if they are using a very thin matters with it.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Always1StepBehind,
If you can use it, if it fits and is in good shape, that's a good price for a basic daybed. And you can paint it any color you want.
As for the mattress, it looks kinda thin, but then you wouldn't want that USED mattress, would you?
It does need a thicker, more comfy looking new twin mattress, that's for sure.
Nevermind on the above metal daybed, it's already been sold.
But I also saw this one, I'm thinking I like something like this as it resembles more of a "couch" look...
$200. on CL
Ilike it. Seems like it would that cozy feel like the one lilsophie poted.
OMG!!!! Sellers dont like it when buyers reply to an ad with "is it still available" which I totally get. But take your gosh darn ad down when you items sells!!
That 2nd one is sold too!!!
I replied asking if the drawers work right and if it came from a non smoking home and they replied it was sold. oh well, guess that's not the one for us!!
Well I guess the good news is that Ikea has slashed the price of this bed. Now $299. if I wanted to buy it new....but then I'd have to put it together :-(
I want you to get her this padded daybed. It looks so comfy. This is the one. Oh, and don't worry about price, because it is your daughter you know. LOL
WTH now the link is blocked....uuggg

Darn the picture is too small. Dang still having problems posting pics with this new computer. I want my old computer back.This message has been edited. Last edited by: lilsophie,
Thanks Annie. Can you come to my house and help figure out this new computer I'm so frustrated. LOL
Don't you just love these upholstered daybeds. I think they are so cute and would be so comfy to lay on.
Lets see if this one works. lol
This is a cool one Always. Look at the storage.

LOVE LOVE LOVE that Pottery Barn one!!!
Wal mart has this one that looks like a couch-similar to that red one too.
I saw this at living spaces..I wouldn't ever think I'd like something like this but it was actually pretty cool and better looking in real life.
omg love the one from wal mart,,,i use the sectional sofa for sleeping so often and it's worn out...(it's also 13 years old) wonder if it would look tacky to buy 2 of those, lol lol...probably would have to add a bolster or large pillows so you sat in comfort...
shoot once on trading spaces they built a platform and added twin mattress...it was a lr, too...of course they used a non bedroom fabric...
Nice choices! what kid wouldn't want a cool daybed in their bedroom that looked like a swag sitting room. Yay, mom!
Any of those would work with your vision of having a hang out spot for your DD.
I love the green one, such a fun color, as well as the pottery barn one.
I know with you luck with craigs list, you will find something that will work in the space.
Another option is to just use the Hollywood frame and push it against the wall with pillows. Those frames are usually only $50 and come with the mattress set.
Thanks Wendek-I was thinking the same thing. Here is one of many inspiration pics I saved. Same idea.
This looks nice too. Very Simple.
I think I'm gonna go to Ikea to get ideas. They always have neat spaces set up.
That's true, Ikea always has fun rooms to get ideas and marvel at how small they say the space is.
I like your inspiration pics. Great ideas. Your DD should be getting excited about all this by now.
Well of course I found something I like and it's not available anywhere...
I like that one too.
You keep giving me ideas, as i'll be updating my 9yo's room when my brother and his kids move out. Fun.
I like this one too. Might not look so bulky since it has cut outs. But you would definaely need pillows to sit comfortably against the metal.
That's why I think that I only like the padded ones. I know they are more expensive. But the the comfort would be worth it IMO. Especially for her age, sitting on it with her friends alot.
Always, the IKEA one is INCREDIBLY heavy. If you find one that is pre-assembled, you will absolutely need a lot of help moving it. And in terms of putting it together...it takes quite a while. I left the house while dh did it IYKWIM. And then came home as he was taking one of the boxes, folding it in half and stepping on it to crush it down, only to discover that these flimsy inserts that were actually the bottoms of each of the drawers were still in that box. So yeah, he crushed them. It worked out to our benefit though b/c he took what remained to a friend who owns a plastics business, and he measured them and made new ones for it using heavy duty recycled plastic. So much stronger than those pressboard inserts.
Anyway, I love the IKEA bed for my dd. For the price, you simply can't beat the design with the pull out bed AND the extra storage. I'm not normally a big IKEA fan in terms of quality but I really do like the design of this bed. And my dd, who had a double bed prior to getting this one, is very very happy with it, which is most important!
You might be able to do baskets with the Ikea model like this?
way back when(1960's)...they had what they called duo-beds at a store (long gone i'm sure) in los angeles... but it was twin beds at an l shape with a large table over half of one...they had fitted "spreads" in a textured fabric...and you added bolsters, ect for easier sitting...finding twin beds isn't difficult, and maybe a table? the problem is the height...a mattress and box spring is too high..but one of the 13-15"high mattresss on a "normal frame (a sheet of ply, instead of a box spring)might be a budget alternative?
wow wish i was on the big puter, cause i found a fitted bedspread at figi's gallery...(tried ot c/p, but couldn't) all in neutral colors,and matching pillows...
I know what you are talking about SJF, but we called them corner groups...it was like upholtered twin sized beds with a table in the corner.
Here is the link and picture of the fitted bedspreads from Figi.
I like the "idea" of daybeds, but changing the sheets......ugh!
My granddaughter has a daybed, and I have to practically crawl around trying to get the sheets on nicely.
If I go with a daybed, in regards to making a daybed, in my mind I visualize having the mattress covered in some type of cover almost like a "cushion" and then DD can sit on it as she pleases and use a blanket or oversized throw when she sleeps. So I wouldn't make it up like a regular bed.
My other thought is just using the twin mattress/boxspring with a "cover" over the mattress and boxspring like this or the picture above with the fuschia cover.
Also meant to add that my plan is to get down to Ikea first and see the one I think I might be interested in real life and then hopefully go from there.
This is super cute, love the color too.
Look at this corner one.
You can make those padded pieces that are against both walls.This message has been edited. Last edited by: lilsophie,

I liked the style of this one best. Light & airy, even the color looks good. The next two
are too bulky. Keep looking & one day you will find the right one. Be a bit wary of bedbugs in used ones.
Well I have a craiglist prospect of the Ikea bed for $100. I have an email into seller asking if it comes from a non smoking home etc.
Looks like it's in good condition. I've been sorta waivering on what to do whether I want to switch to a daybed for DD or not, but if I can get this one for $100. I'm in.
We'll see what the fate of craigslist has in store for me ;-)
This is the one avail. $100.
Wish me luck!!
I like it!!
Well the $100. Ikea daybed is out. I think it sold, the ad is down :-( oh well guess it wasn't meant to be!!
i like that corner one! That would make there be more room and your daughter c
an use it for a long time. When my daughter got her first big bed she didn't want to go back to a twin bed.
I wouldn't mind keeping her full bed if I can get the rest of the room to function for her. So I keep going back and forth.
I do know either way I want to a different dresser for her, I like the large 3 drawer Ikea Hemnes dresser. There is 34 inch wide one and a 43 inch one. I like the larger one.
Can't tell from pic if this is the 34 in or the 43 in one but this is the Hemnes line.
I think using the full bed makes more sense, esp if you get a new dresser. You already have the linens. If you go to all the trouble of improving her side, have you had a frank talk with her about using the space and maybe start sleeping on her own now that she's 12?
I didn't know if I should start a new thread or just continue off this one...
I got DD's dresser sold this weekend since I know for sure I want to get a different one.
I ended up putting her bed on the shorter wall where her dresser was and it really seemed to open up the floor space.
Here is where I placed her bed.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Always1StepBehind,
going around the room...
last one...
Now I need to figure out how to arrange it.
I think I may ask a grandma of DD's friend who does interior decorating to give me some idea of how to arrange the space.
If you have any ideas or suggestions, feel free to throw it out there.
DD's wants blue bedding or something with more color which I think is a great idea...I keep trying to keep things neutral, but I'm just gonna go for it. The bedding shown in the pic was just a cheap set up from Kohls we grabbed one day.
Im not going to worry about trying to tie her colors in with my side of the room.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Always1StepBehind,
Much better use of space with the open area. Blue would be nice and I'd try to involve her in the choice so she feels its truly her area. Some floating shelves would help in getting trophies/ medals and other special seldom used items up higher and off bookshelves.

A bank that once carred about their customers simply no longer does, they give LIP SERVICE, thats all they do, I had all my investments, lending, and regular banking at PNC but didnt matter, they still dont care.......LIP SERVICE, thats all you will get!!
I'll save the long list of how poor this customer service is. After 10 months (TEN - please count them, TEN) of trying to get something SIMPLE like my loan payment to be deducted automatically, I finally lost it today.
The bank was refusing to waive $130 of fees, their error, and they admit that. Spoke with somebody who puts the "Douche" in "Douchebag", Thomas Dillard, at 877-631-8998, x2695443896 (LOVE those TEN DIGIT extensions).
Will NEVER do business with this bank again. POOR, POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE.
While you might have integrity and be a person of your word, who backs up those words with actions, PNC Bank most certainly is the complete opposite. They have no integrity and they blatantly lie. We have a loan with PNC Bank and have made every single payment to them, on time, for the past 2 years just as we agreed to do. Our attorney is/was in the process of negotiating the terms of the balance of the loan and was told by their attorney what documents they were going to require and was also told that our bank rep was going on vacation and nothing would be happening for at least the next week. Well, they lied. On Friday, at the end of the day, PNC sucked $58,000 from our account with no notice whatsoever. To make matters worse, there is $50,000 worth of checks written to vendors and employees, including our paycheck. They took the money out anyway, even though there were outstanding checks which were written on clear money. We sent an email to our rep and received an auto-response saying she was on vacation and giving the names of 2 people to contact in case of an emergency. Well this is an emergency and surely this must be a mistake, right? Despite repeated phone calls to both people, we were only able to get one man on the phone who basically said, "too bad, fuck you, talk to your attorney." When our attorney spoke with the PNC attorney, they said they knew it was happening, despite telling us, in writing that it wasn't going to. I can't even fathom how someone would do that and then leave for vacation, without any regard and leaving people to try and pull their business and lives together. We are filing a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission. I'm tempted to write all of their names here, but I have more integrity than that.

Local leaders volunteer for United Way, seeking 'tips' in grocery-bagging fundraiser
By Ashley Rader
The Elizabethton city manager, finance director, director of utilities and Carter County sheriff could all be found bagging groceries at the Elizabethton Food City on Tuesday.
No, these local officials — and others — were not working to earn extra Christmas spending money.
They were volunteering for the United Way's celebrity bagging fundraiser held at the local grocery store chain.
The Elizabethton/Carter County United Way was just one of many local United Ways to take advantage of the fundraising opportunity. The event not only raises funds for the agency, but spreads community awareness of the agency and the services provided to communities through the United Way.
The Carter County United Way had volunteers stationed at the Elizabethton and Piney Flats Food City stores to help bag groceries for customers and help them to their vehicles if they requested assistance. Shoppers were encouraged to tip the guest grocery baggers as a part of the fundraiser for the United Way. All "tips" will be contributed to the Carter County United Way 2013 campaign. Collection cans were placed at the registers for shoppers to put their donations in.
Elizabethton/Carter County United Way Director Debbie Guy said the campaign was a success for the local United Way. Guy was stationed at the Piney Flats location, and United Way Board Chair Sheriff Chris Mathes and Vice-Chair Candy Craig were in charge of the Elizabethton portion of the fundraiser.
"The majority of the response has been positive," Guy said. "I think this is a great way for us to build relationships in the community. We are here to answer any questions people might have about the United Way and the services it provides."
Craig agreed that the shoppers had been friendly and receptive toward the United Way's campaign.
"It is a good fundraiser for the United Way, but it is more about raising public awareness through the involvement in the VIP bagging program," Craig said.
Elizabethton Finance Director Jerome Kitchens was one of the volunteers at the bagging campaign.
"We feel fortunate so we want to be able to help those who are in need," Kitchens said. "We came as a group to show that the city does back the United Way and its mission to help others."
A group of Elizabethton officials, include City Manager Fred Edens, Director of Utilities Johann Coetzee, Director of Planning and Development Jon Hartman and Fire Chief Barry Carrier, signed up for the afternoon shift of the fundraiser.
Coetzee said he felt it was important to help with the United Way because most of the money collected stayed in the Carter County community.
Edens said it was important to volunteer with the spirit of charity in mind.
"We should always give back what we can and be grateful for what we do have," he said.
Chuck Babb, coach of the Happy Valley boys' basketball team, was another of the volunteers working for the United Way Tuesday afternoon. He said he was volunteering as an example for the high school students he works with on a daily basis.
"If we want to teach our players to be good citizens, then we need to be good citizens ourselves," he said. "We are stewards of what God has given us, and we are to be good stewards for Him."
Mathes said the fundraiser had been a "fun" day and that it was a good opportunity to share information on the United Way.
"It has been great to see everyone in the festive Thanksgiving spirit," Mathes said. "Everyone has been in giving mood. Everything collected will help the agencies. It has been a thrill to serve. Whether it is a few dollars collected or a lot of dollars, it has been a good experience. Everyone is pitching in, the city officials, the county officials and other citizens. How could it not bring a smile to your face?"
The United Way's campaign goal for the 2013 year is $182,000, and around 20 percent, or $36,400, has been collected so far.

Positive Experience
Average Interview
I applied online and the process took 2 weeks - interviewed at Raytheon in March 2012.
Interview Details I was already working at the company, so having an interview was easier than for someone from the outside. The interview was scheduled and I was the last one interviewed. The panel consisted of the department manager (hiring manager), 2 managers and a staff member and was arranged by HR and the department administrator.
The interview lasted for approx. 1 hour and consisted of me giving them a summary of myself, a series of questions from each panel member and a wrap up summary by me. They were going to make a decision within one week of my interview.
I did not hear back from them, but I followed up with them after 1 week. They responded that they had selected someone else with more experience than I had.
The interview was very comfortable and professionally handled. They were accommodating to my schedule and asked canned HR questions --- standard, "safe" questions to ask interviewees.
Interview Question – Why would you be the best qualified candidate for this job? View Answer

Steve Jobs vs. Sam Walton: The tale of the tapeNovember 15, 2012: 5:00 AM ET
A rare conversation with Walter Isaacson and John Huey, the writers who got inside the heads of these two extraordinary business leaders.
By Andy Serwer, managing editor
FORTUNE -- When you consider the greatest business minds of the past 100 years, certainly Steve Jobs and Sam Walton have to be at the very top of the list. Jobs created the most valuable company on earth (though down from an all-time high, Apple (AAPL) is still worth more than $500 billion), while Walton founded and built Wal-Mart (WMT), the biggest company in the world, with more than $450 billion in sales over the past 12 months. But Jobs and Walton did even more than that. Both created retailing, business, and even societal revolutions. They changed the way we buy, shop, and interact, and even how and where we work and live. The two men were vastly different. Jobs was a business version of a California counterculture icon. Walton was an old-school heartland conservative. And yet they were remarkably similar too: iconoclasts, of course, relentless, and often very tough on the people around them. And that's just for starters. If you really drill down into their lives and careers, all kinds of really cool insights emerge.
Who better to compare and contrast these two remarkable men than their remarkable biographers, Walter Isaacson and John Huey? Isaacson, author of Steve Jobs, is the CEO of the Aspen Institute, a former head of CNN and editor of Time, and also the author of biographies of Kissinger, Franklin, and Einstein. Huey, who wrote Sam Walton: Made in America with Walton, is the editor-in-chief of Time Inc., the former editor of Fortune, and my boss.
The inspiration for this conversation came from an interview of Huey and Isaacson that I conducted in early September at the Global Summit for the Closely Held, put on by BDT & Co., a merchant bank for family-controlled companies headed by Byron Trott, who founded the company three years ago after leaving Goldman Sachs, where he was famously Warren Buffett's banker. Huey and Isaacson had plenty to say about their subjects. (As you can see, I didn't really have to ask many questions!) What follows are the highlights.
Andy Serwer: These books are must-reads for students and practitioners of business -- there's no doubt about that. Sam Walton and Steve Jobs are two of the greatest business leaders in history. So I want to start by asking our biographers: How did you get to know the subjects of your books?
Walter Isaacson: I'd known Steve Jobs since 1984, January, when I was at Time magazine, a junior writer, and he came to show off the original Macintosh. I saw both sides of his personality. He had us use a jeweler's loupe to look at the cool icons. Then all of a sudden he turned dark and started berating us, saying we would never get the beauty of this sort of thing. I saw the intensity of his personality, and I came away liking him.
When I became editor of Time, and then at CNN, he was my good friend for two days a year when he had a new product out. So there was that relationship.
I got a phone call when I went to the Aspen Institute in 2004. He said he wanted to take a walk. I said, "Sure." I didn't know that taking a walk was the way he had meetings. I'd written a book about Benjamin Franklin. I was just finishing up a biography of Albert Einstein. He said, "I want you to do my biography next." My initial reaction was "Yeah, okay, Ben Franklin, Albert Einstein, you …" I wondered, half-jokingly, whether he saw himself as the natural successor in that sequence. I said, "Maybe in 20 or so years, when you retire."
Later his wife said to me, "If you're going to do a book on Steve, you had better do it now." By then it had become public that he was sick. She said, "He didn't want people to know, but he called you right before he was operated on for cancer."
Serwer: John, what about you with Sam Walton? How did you guys get acquainted?
John Huey: I went to work for Fortune in November of 1988, and they decided they wanted to make Wal-Mart the "most admired company." Usually when you call up a company and say, "We're going to make your company the 'most admired company' on the cover of Fortune," they roll out everything. Wal-Mart said, "Not interested. We don't want anything to do with it."
And the editor said, "We have to have cooperation," because there's never been a posed photograph of Sam Walton. He's avoided the press. The editor said, "You're a Southerner -- you go down to Arkansas and talk him into it."
I went down there. It was two weeks before Christmas. It was horrible weather. I went over to Wal-Mart, and I just basically knocked on the door. His assistant -- her name was Becky -- said, "He's hunting. He's not available."
This went on for days. Rain kept on going. I knew that he drove this old pickup truck. So I kept riding by there looking for the pickup truck.
Ten days into this I said to my photographer, "We're going to go back over there, and if we don't see that truck, we're getting out of here."
So we rode by, and there was the truck. Sam Walton was in the building. We went in, and I picked up the vendor phone and said, "May I speak to Becky?" Sam answered the phone. I said, "Is this Sam Walton?" He said, "Yes." I said, "Well, this is John Huey from Fortune magazine. I've been here 10 days. It's raining. My wife is going to leave me, and if I don't get this picture, they're going to fire me and I'm going to have a terrible Christmas, and all I need is 10 minutes."
You know, journalists have no pride.
He came out, and we took the picture. He complained the whole time. "You're wasting a lot of flashbulbs, you're wasting a lot of the film." And then he said, "Oh, and by the way, you can't put this picture on the cover."
We negotiated. We got the cover. I wrote a long story about Wal-Mart, and then over the next three years or so, I was flying in planes with him and driving around and basically hitchhiking across America.
Serwer: Let's talk a little bit about the men themselves, Steve Jobs and Sam Walton, and how they're the same and how they're different.
Isaacson: I think I understood everything about Jobs except for why he opened up so much. It was exactly a year ago this week when I went to Palo Alto for the last time. I kept asking him, "Why did you do this? Why did you do this?" And he said, "I have an amazing life. It was very interesting. I just think people ought to know."
Huey: Sam was very different from Steve in a lot of ways, but they had some similarities. They were both showmen. They both loved to hold court on a stage and mesmerize people. They were both extreme charismatics. They were obsessed with competition.
Sam was not a reflective person. Writing a book that was his story was difficult because he didn't really care about that. He didn't really remember it. And I had to shore it up. I had to do reporting for him to do his own story because he couldn't remember what year anything was. He was always looking ahead.
Steve really saw himself as a philosopher and an intellectual. Sam was a throwback. He was a throwback to Andy Hardy and Horatio Alger. He would hire donkeys and put them in the front of his stores to open them. He would have Ferris wheels in the parking lot.
Isaacson: Steve knew how to open a store too, and he was a showman too. But there was a basic and fundamental distinction. Steve was focused on product and did not focus mainly on profit. He said, "If you keep your eye on the profit, you're going to skimp on the product. But if you focus on making really great products, then the profits will follow." He was motivated by making the most beautiful products he could imagine. He never wanted to compete on price or be a commodity.
Huey: Steve was focusing on an elite group of people who appreciated the art of his business talent. In so doing, he focused on the product, and he created a product that had margins that were as insanely great as the insanely great products. Sam was the exact opposite. He focused on being able to open a store in five days, and if the margins got above anything that was infinitesimal, he was angry. He was a businessman who had to keep margins down because he was all about volume. He wanted a clean store, but he wouldn't spend a penny on design. For years they did their own ads with clip-art books. Steve would design a new font to have an ad.
Isaacson: For his store he took out a design patent on that staircase, and his name is on that patent, and most of the major Apple Stores now have them. He said, "You want that stairway so people believe they're in someplace magical."
Huey: Sam would take his executives around to the worst store that he could come up with, and he would say, "This is a horrible store. I want everybody to come out of there with one thing they do better than we do because everybody does something good. And there's something in there that we could do."
Isaacson: When Steve took his people on a tour, he took them to the Tiffany Museum because he wanted them to see that you could do awesome design like Louis Comfort Tiffany did but also have it be so people could have it.
Huey: Even in Sam's earliest days as a 10-cent-store owner, he would never sell a Hula-Hoop because a Hula-Hoop was branded and came from Wham-O, and you'd have to pay Wham-O something for having developed the product. Sam looked at it and said, "It's a round piece of circular plastic. Get somebody to make us a round piece of circular plastic, and we'll call it something else and we'll sell it for half the price!"
Isaacson: That's what Samsung did with the Apple iPhone, and they got sued.
Huey: There are so many exact opposites, and there are so many parallels. Sam had multiple myeloma. And he, like Steve, sought out all kinds of exotic cures. Brought people in from Germany.
Isaacson: Both of them did not believe that the normal rules applied.
Huey: To anything.
Isaacson: To anything. For Steve and I think for Mr. Walton, it probably worked 90% of the time.
Huey: My two favorite Sam Walton breaking-the-rules stories: One time we're flying, and the air traffic controller comes on the radio and says, "You're in unauthorized air space." Got the tail number and all. And Sam just turns off the radio. We keep flying, he's got his spreadsheets taped to his leg, and we're looking for a store -- he's looking for the worst-performing store because that's where we're going to land. And we're flying, and the radar's there, and it's green and it's yellow and it's red, and I'm like, "Sam, why are we flying to the red?" and he said, "Because that's the quickest way." I said, "That's like a tornado." He said, "It's the quickest way."
The other story was when he was in the hospital in Little Rock. He was dying, and his family had gone out for the day to go shopping and left me there. He says, "John, I want to get out of here," and he starts pulling the tubes out of his arm. I said, "We can't leave." And he said, "I'm going. Are you going with me?" And he picks up the phone and he calls the Bentonville airport -- his airport -- and he says, "Send a plane down here. I'm going to be there in 45 minutes." And I have to pull him out of the bed. I roll him out, down into the lobby. He's a shrunken little old guy, and he gets down to the lobby and says, "How are we going to get to the airport?"
I said, "Yeah, you didn't think of that, did you?"
Isaacson: When Steve was in the hospital in Memphis after the liver transplant, they had to put an oxygen mask on him, and he keeps pulling it off and saying, "This design sucks." He asked them to bring him five different options so he could pick a design he liked. It was the same type of thing he would do at the Apple design studio.
Huey: I mean these guys --
Isaacson: Didn't live by the rules. But sometimes they're right. At one point Steve wants to do the iPhone, but he doesn't want the face to be plastic. He wanted it to be this beautiful silky glass. Steve being Steve, he just picks up the phone and calls the Corning Glass (GLW) switchboard and says, "Let me speak to your CEO." The switchboard says, "Fine, we'll take your name and number." He says, "Typical East Coast bullshit," and slams down the phone.
Wendell Weeks, the Corning CEO, is a cool guy. He hears about it, and he picks up the phone, calls the switchboard at Cupertino, and says, "Let me speak to your CEO." They say, "Will you fax your request in writing?" It gets back to Steve, and Steve says, "I like this guy."
They have a meeting, and Steve says, "I want this type of glass." Weeks says, "Well, we once did a process called Gorilla Glass that has this ion transfer. It'd be kind of good, but we never made it."
And Steve looked at the process, said, "Yeah, that's what I want. I want this much by September, and do it secretly."
And Wendell says, "Well, I just told you, we've never made it before. We don't have the capacity." And Steve just stares at him, unblinking, and says, "Don't be afraid. You can do it." And they did. He had what they called a "reality distortion field," and it compelled people to do amazing things that they thought were impossible.
Huey: Right, and that's the glass that's on your iPad.
Serwer: And that's a huge business.
Huey: Sam Walton completely transformed the distribution business worldwide because he couldn't get anybody to distribute to him. He was constantly looking at his numbers. He realized a really important fact, and he asked the CEO of Procter & Gamble (PG) to come to Bentonville, and the guy said, "Well, you know -- "
He said, "I think you'd better come to Bentonville. I have some really important business to discuss with you."
So the guy came to Bentonville for the first time ever, and Sam said, "I've discovered something that I think you and I need to know before we go any further forward."
And the guy says, "What's that?"
And he said, "Wal-Mart accounts for more of your business than the entire country of Japan, and you don't even have anybody who will call on me in Bentonville, much less be based here. Everything's going to change. You're going to open an office here. You're going to treat us like we're Japan."
And he pretty much did that to the rest of the world, and as a result, he ended up taking all the pricing power away from the manufacturers.
I would say they were both some of the most difficult people in the history of the world to negotiate with because their idea of a negotiation was, if you said no, they didn't hear it.
Serwer: Wal-Mart has been wildly successful since Sam's death. At Apple, Tim Cook took over a year ago, and now the company's market capitalization is $270 billion bigger, and the question everyone asks is, "What's going to happen at Apple?" This is a pretty good template, right?
Isaacson: Apple's future as a company was one of the things that a year ago Steve was obsessed about. He had gone in at the end of August to tell the board that he was stepping down as CEO. And everybody on the board is very sad, and then they try to jolly things up, and they talk about how Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) had just gotten out of the tablet business that day, was screwing things up, and he said something like, "Wait a minute. Bill Hewlett gave me my first job. When I was 13 years old and needed a part, I called him from the phone book, and he gave me a summer job, and he and David Packard thought they'd made a company that was going to outlast them and continue to grow for a generation, and these bozos have screwed it up. Don't let that happen to Apple."
He said, "Here's what's in our DNA at Apple. We stand at the intersection of art and science; at the intersection of creativity and technology." And he said, "That's been in the DNA of great companies. That's why Walt Disney (DIS) -- even though people tried to screw up that company -- it's still going to survive."
Huey: One of the last conversations I had with Sam, he was lying on his hospital bed in his living room and he was weak, and he was down to skin and bones, and he said, "John, I don't know. We built a heck of a company over there. But I can just tell. I haven't been over there in a month. I know they're over there screwing it up."
Serwer: Who was the greater genius, Sam Walton or Steve Jobs?
Huey: Genius? Steve Jobs.
Isaacson: "Genius" is a word thrown around pretty loosely and shouldn't be, but if it applies to anybody, it applies to Steve Jobs. He actually wasn't the smartest person in the digital revolution. Bill Gates had more conventional mental-processing power than Steve did in terms of analyzing information and data. But Steve Jobs had an intuitive genius, and that genius comes not just from being smart but from being imaginative and creative. And making leaps that come from thinking differently.
Huey: Steve was like Edison. Edison was a genius. We don't know what his IQ was, but it may not have been very high. We don't even know if -- we don't even know that Steve could do math.
Sam was more like Henry Ford. He was very focused on changing something that was massive and structural. Was Henry Ford a genius? I don't think so, but he was a great businessman. Sam Walton was a great businessman. Walter made a joke about Ben Franklin and Einstein and Steve Jobs, but I don't really think it's a joke. I think they were all geniuses.

Atmosphere rules at this French New Orleans-themed spot that serves traditional American fare. – In Short
Decorated like a French country bistro with jazzy New Orleans overtones, Mimi's Café was named after a lost love of Arthur Simms, who started the restaurant in 1978 in Anaheim, Calif., with his family. The ambience could only be upstaged by the menu filled with traditional American favorites. Breakfast includes omelets, waffles, muffins and fresh-squeezed juices, while lunch and dinner feature comfort-food classics like pot pie and pot roast, deli-style sandwiches, burgers, pastas, steaks and salads.
User review by harajukugirl – Mimi's has a lot of good dishes for a chain restaurant. I personally love the Blue Cheese & Walnut salad the most which has lots of leafy greens (yes actually green lettuce not iceburg), strawberries, dried cranberries, walnuts, blue cheese, tomatoes, with a very tasty vinegrette. It also comes with bacon pieces but I skip that cause I'm a vegetarian. They also offer a low-fat and low-carb menu for the health conscious. If you aren't watching what you eat the brownie ice cream dessert is to die for!!! One bad thing is that it is VERY busy on Sat. + Sun. for breakfast and lunch...expect a 10-20 min. wait.

Foreign land owners must report holdings, transactions
Foreign investors with an interest in agricultural lands in the United States are required to report their holdings and any transactions to the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture.
Any foreign person who acquires or transfers any interest, other than a security interest, in agricultural land in the United States is required by law to report the transaction no later than 90 days after the date of the acquisition or transfer.
The required action can be done by filing Agricultural Foreign Investment Disclosure Act reports with the Farm Service Agency office that maintains reports for the county where the land is located.
Failure to file a report, filing a late report or filing an inaccurate report can result in a penalty with fines up to 25 percent of the fair market value of the agricultural land.
For AFIDA purposes, agricultural land is defined as any land used for farming, ranching or timber production if the tracts total 10 acres or more.
Disclosure reports are also required when there are changes in land use. For example, reports are required when land use changes from nonagricultural to agricultural or from agricultural to nonagricultural.
When the AFIDA was signed into law in 1978, the reporting requirement was adopted as part of the same legislation. Data gained from these disclosures is used in the preparation of periodic reports to the president and Congress concerning the effect of such holdings upon family farms and rural communities in the United States.
Foreign investors must also file a report when there is a change in the status of ownership such as owner changes from foreign to non-foreign, from non-foreign to foreign or from foreign to foreign.
For more information regarding AFIDA and FSA programs, contact the local FSA office or online at fsa.usda.gov. USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer.
Bill Harmon is executive director of the Marion County FSA office.

Mitzelfelt opens committee to run for assembly
Former 1st District Supervisor Brad Mitzelfelt has opened a committee to run for the state assembly in 2014, pending Assemblyman Tim Donnelly's decision to run for governor.
Mitzelfelt said that he has transferred the remaining balance in his supervisorial campaign fund to his Brad Mitzelfelt for Assembly account, which totals $126,210.
If Donnelly runs for governor in 2014, that would create a vacancy that would be up for grabs, Mitzelfelt said.
"Right now, this is just something I'm considering," Mitzelfelt said. "I haven't decided yet for sure — a big deciding factor is whether Donnelly is running or not. I have no intention of running against him. It's just one option that I'm looking at."
Mitzelfelt said that as a former supervisor he is well aware of the problems local governments deal with because of state laws.
"I can do a lot of things to improve this district," Mitzelfelt said. "I think that there is support on both sides of the isles in Sacramento for reform of these onerous laws and regulations that are driving businesses away from California."
Mitzelfelt said that his contacts and experiences would help him build the types of coalitions necessary to achieve those types of reforms in Sacramento.
