Portugal: Land of ExplorersIn the 15th Century, Prince Henry the navigator ordered his explorers to bring back to Portugal any exotic fruits, nuts and plants from the new lands. Tomatoes and potatoes are taken to Europe, Brazilian pineapples were introduced to Azores, Brazilian chili peppers grew in Angola, African coffee was transplanted to Brazil.Today the Portuguese fondness for ingredients like cinnamon or curry powder, is also a legacy of his time. The Romans brought wheat and introduced onion, garlic, olives and grapes. Later the Moors were the first to plant rice and introduced figs, planted groves of lemons, oranges and almond trees. Portugal is a seafaring nation with a well-developed fishing industry trading cod since the 15th century.Today, naturally, Portuguese cuisine varies from region to region , but fresh fish and shellfish are found on virtually every menu.

    I was all set for the Sea Bass tonight but unfortunately the delivery was delayed so o went back to the skirt steak with Spanish potatoes and chimichurri sauce. The steak was flavorful as always, the potatoes were crispy and salty which is perfect and the vegetables were perfectly cooked. If you order this dish as for some of their hot sauce if you like a bit of heat. Service was warm and personable as always. You always feel welcome here that's why we always come back.
