| - The food is authentic vouched my Portuguese friend!
Every time we went to my friends parties she would have platters of food from here, so I'm familiar with how great these pastries and goodies taste but no idea what they are called!
They lack signage for food completely here, so newbies like me will repetitively inquire, "ooh what's that?" over and over. The cakes, the bread, deep fried things all have no signs or prices, so unless you know what it is you won't feel comfortable.
The service was patient and friendly, but I caused a back log on the line up, but if they had signage I would know that the cod ball wasn't a dessert filled with cream.
Things to try, names are referenced off the receipt.
Sweet
- Portuguese tarts (Natas) creamy smooth egg and medium torched in a flaky shell. Like a thicker version of creme brûlée
- milk tart(quiej. De leite): like a Nata but without egg, so it's a lot lighter, not quite cupcake like as described but good
Bread
Milk egg sweet bread??: it's right by the cash, big huge top hat sized thing. It's very light inside and a touch sweet. It looks dry and tough on the outside though but it's not.. Makes great French toast if you have leftovers!
Deep fried:
R. Camarao: teardrop one is cod, flaky and light with mashed potatoes and parsley, even people who can't stand salmon will like this.
The patty shape one is shrimp filled, also tasty.
