    I had an early lunch today at Best Portuguese Chicken.. I ordered the half chicken dinner with rice and potatoes. It also came with a pop. The portion was large and the price was cheap ($12). I've eaten this meal in a lot of Portuguese restaurants and I found it interesting that they don't put the hot sauce on your food. They are in containers on the tables. I think there was two varieties (there were two unlabeled bottles) ... kinda hot (which I used) and hotter. The chicken was fresh and tender,though the wing was overdone and inedible (I was too full anyway). I'd go back!

    Finally got to try this place both Sunday and Tuesday (for their $18 tax included) whole chicken special which comes with 2 sides! Love their rice (minus the olives) and fluffy roasted potato balls! Chicken is amazing! They are a bit stingy on the sauce! 1 tub of sauce per chicken! The tub is like regular size ketchup tubs when you order take out. I guess that's why they sell the size for $10.50! Their Piri Piri sauce is the bomb.

    It was a Saturday afternoon, and we were hungry. We wanted something simple, relatively quick, and not too expensive. BPC popped up on the recommendations, so we decided to give it a go. Both Lee and I had quarters with rice and potatoes. The chicken was great, the rice was a little bit crunchy in parts (overdone, or a little bit dry? not sure which,) and although I liked the potato balls, Lee wasn't a huge fan of them. The piri-piri sauce was pretty good, although a little bit on the tame side. Even the super hot was what I would only call medium. I will say that to be fair, I'm more used to South American piri-piri sauce, so that might just be a cultural difference. Would I go again? I would. I think it was a good value for the money, but I would probably avoid the rice and get a different side next time. They seem to do a really bang up business for catering though, as there were tons of trays of chickens going out the door.

    Quaint little spot on the Queensway just east of Islington. This spot is brightly lit with a nice clean small dining area and lots of fresh light during the daytime threw the big storefront glass windows. Enjoy the sun in the summertime and eat on the small patio. It's a bit loud - being situated right on the street - but a nice cordoned off spot to enjoy the food an some fresh air. The service is quick and T&E food is delicious. It's not the best Portuguese chicken I've EVER had, but it rivals pretty much any other in this city. Don't forget the custard tarts for desert. Great finish to an inexpensive enjoyable meal out.

We got the clarified cocktail and two glasses on wine - the vino verde and another crisp refreshing wine. They were both great.

For food we got the meat croquettes, salt cod fritter, octopus salad, piri piri chicken, summer squash, and shrimp Mozambique. I would pass on the salt cod fritter next time, but every other dish was amazing. My favorites were the summer squash and piri piri chicken. They had great flavor and were slightly spicy too. I would go back again to try more of their menu.

I originally stopped by the plaza to pick up bubble tea from another unit and ended up discovering this amazing little restaurant serving fresh, hot food. It was Friday after 4PM, and the selection was fantastic--octopus dishes, rice, potatoes, rissóis, fish patties, fresh pork rinds, desserts, and more. I picked up the pork rinds, shrimp rissóis, and a fish patty, and every single item was delicious. Everything tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and clearly made with care. The rissóis were especially good--crispy outside with a flavorful filling. There's also a Portuguese shop right next door, which made the visit even better. I found Terra Nostra Azores butter, cheese, Portuguese muffins, sardines, olives, and plenty of other imported goodies. Definitely a hidden gem. I'll be back regularly--this is the kind of place you want to keep coming back to.

However, I decided to finally come here as my usual Portuguese chicken joints' quality have kinda gone downhill. Since this was my first time ordering, I wanted to call and make sure how much in advance I had to order and whether or not they had Bacalau. The man who I spoke to was very nice and said that I should give 30mins notice and that they did have Bacalau. A coupla hours later, when I placed my phone order...they didn't have any bacalau. So I had to order a side salad to sorta puff up the portion. Chicken was still being prepared by the time I arrived for pick-up. Rice/Parisienne potato sides are in chafing trays and it wasn't as hot as the freshly prepared chicken. Still good, but just at different temps. Greek Salad that I ordered, last minute, was freshly prepared, crispy, had all the components. Medium size served 2 large portions! I'd definitely come back again, but if I wanted a specific, non-chicken dish, I'll definitely clarify whether or not they had it!

    Paella anyone? I bet you haven't heard that in a while. And…read morehonestly, who knew it was such a Portuguese thing too? We all know Spain made it famous, but Portugal? INSANE. Back to why I do this. I'm endlessly curious about food, people, and the magic that happens when great meals meet good music. Friendships just seem to evolve naturally around a table. And thank you, E, for another incredible photo -- your choices are always perfect. Mercado on St. Clair is a hidden gem. What was once beside my mom's flower shop downtown has now found a home in a slightly more industrial setting on Caledonia -- and somehow, it works perfectly. Cozy seating inside, a great covered patio outside, and that village-style European restaurant vibe you hope to stumble across. First off, the waiter was phenomenal. He walked us through the menu, explained everything perfectly, and genuinely elevated the whole experience. The menu is massive -- meat, seafood, everything you could want -- but we came for the paella. We were told it takes time because they make it the proper way. Not overly crispy, just authentic, rich, and layered with flavour. Worth every minute of the wait. To start, we had the gambas / shrimp in a rich red garlic and herb sauce plus extra toasted bread for dipping, per our waiter's recommendation. Absolute rockstar move. The other appetizer was a delicious beef stew served over crunchy rustic bread. Simple, hearty, and top notch. Now... drum roll please. This may have been the best paella I've ever had. Okay okay, maybe somewhere along the coast in Spain I've had one fresher... but this was absolutely off the charts. Zero fishy smell. Just beautiful saffron-infused rice with that perfect slight crisp, loaded with mussels, clams, octopus, calamari, shrimp, and more. Built for two people to share and completely unforgettable. A few glasses of house white later and bam - there was absolutely no chance I was going back to work. And dessert? I kept telling myself: "No dessert, Frank. No dessert." But there's a rule in life ; if you see crème brûlée on a menu, you order it. This wasn't exactly crème brûlée, but a cheesecake-inspired version of it. Two spoons, four bites, and thank you very much. Favourite meal of the year so far. Completely blown away by this place. Mercatto -- go now. Go fast.

There was plenty of wait staff on site but communication between staff was quite poor. No one ever came by to see if we needed anything or to ask if we wanted additional drinks or the like.

You would expect that when serving lobster and crab the tableware would include for seafood crackers. This is not the case. I asked for seafood crackers from two different wait staff and was advised they didn't have any. So I went to the matre d' and asked, she went into the back and brought some out for our table. If you serving lobster and crab, the restaurant should either provide crackers or pre- cut the claws ready to eat.

They are doing a promo currently $50pp as its usually I believe $70pp. The interior is old school vibe church decoration feeling with some antique stuff. I'm here for the food and not much on the decor tbh. The spread is all laid out in a L format. Its not the typical buffet spread of having appetizers, mains and desserts and such. In fact, I didn't see any desserts but you can order for additional cost. Appetizers I guess are the salads... There were a few meat options there, but I was there for the seafood spread... They had octopus chunks, squid rings, shrimp, cold crab legs, lobster with tomalley, fish, mussels... Surprisingly, i thought the octopus, squid was quite good in taste and texture. The lobster was a bit tough like the old Mandarin buffet days with overcooked lobster but had tomalley to enjoy if you like that. Overall, I think its simple spread but enjoyable. For the promo price point its good. They also have live music performance as well. Better to go early so the food doesn't get cold and less crowded.
