Description of the Brazilian Pavilion from the Golden Gate International Exposition Official Guide Book:

In a tropical patio, against a luxuriant background of Bird of Paradise, rubber and banana trees, and tree-ferns, you may sip the pure Brazilian coffee or South American tea, "mate". This picturesque Cafe Brazil occupies the entire south wing of the attractive building.
