Brazilian immigrant turned from party boy to business success with Leominster restaurant
LEOMINSTER — Originally from Brazil, Rodrigo Souza had always not been the model student getting the best attention from teachers. Yet with a creative heart and passion for learning new things, he's now a restaurant owner who loves what he's doing. Growing up in a middle-class family in Rio de Janeiro, whose father was a state trooper and mother a social worker and psychologist, Souza, owner of Comeketo Brazilian Steakhouse at 23 Sack Blvd., loved partying and making new friends.
