In Brazil, Carnivale lasts a few days. At Saravá, we're happy to report, it goes on for weeks. Now through March 8, the sassy Shaker Square restaurant is celebrating with dinner specials, a series of Samba Sundays, and — of particular interest to festive imbibers — great deals on their signature caipirinhas, which are temporarily pegged at just $6 per. Pert and refreshing, the cocktail is a blend of fresh lime juice, sugar, crushed ice, and the famous Cachaça 51, a sugarcane-based spirit imported from Brazil. Toss one back and suddenly, that samba dancing doesn't look so hard after all! Saravá is at 13255 Shaker Square; find out more at 216-295-1200 or sergioscleveland.com. — Elaine T. Cicora
