Pastel is a common delicious snack on the streets of Rio, somewhat like a smoked meat pie back home. Flour is spread into a square, wrapped with cheese, and beef or chicken is added, then fried in the oil until golden.
The vendor has already fried several Pastel and left them out, but no one is interested. Naturally, it's because of the theater hostage situation that has completely paralyzed the most prosperous traffic route in Rio at the moment.
Of course, the vendor brother doesn't really care about the sales right now, he's also focused on the latest intelligence on the theater incident on Twitter, and the congratulations from various suspicious characters flooding the screen... uh, what should be but insider tips.
In any case, this evening, Rio was bustling, and as spectators, people were enthusiastically participating in this unprecedented discussion.
"I want two Pastel."
