| - First, name is a bit misleading as I assumed it was a Portuguese chicken place, but it's not...I think it's more Brazilian. However, the 2 lovely ladies running this joint said it's Portuguese AND Brazilian!
Second, there are no sandwiches. They have a dated posted menu that just has duct tape covering the prices on the sandwiches, but apparently they don't serve sandwiches anymore.
Instead, they offer great, homemade dishes in chafing trays. My guess is that it was more Brazilian since I was not familiar with any of the offerings - except for the BBQ chicken which is only offered WHOLE.
A "small" round aluminum container of dishes of your choice was $10. (I opted to "stop" here as opposed to McD's because I strongly believe in supporting small businesses over chains.) I asked the lady to fill it with whatever dishes she recommended. I also got a chicken ball ($1.50) - which I thought was a codfish ball - and the kind lady threw in an additional ball! Maybe she knew that I'd like it and she was 100% right! It was soo delicious and 1 wasn't enough. "Small" was easily 2-3 servings!
Dishes comprised of rice/black beans/pork belly, pieces of sausage/olives/beans, chicken/cheese/peas, and some Parisienne potatoes. Tbh, the Parisienne potatoes at Portuguese places are much better seasoned! This was probably the "weakest" dish though. The rest was DELICIOUS, especially the chicken/cheese/peas.
Highly recommended as a take-out place if you wanna try something new in the area! There is seating, but it is more of a take-out place. Ladies who were working there are very sweet!
