Unfortunately the Flamed Chourico was sold out- mood-dampener indeed.
Difficult to make conversation over the Loud Xmas music.
Here’s what we had.
Sangria- not bad (slept very well that night).
Clams in “White Wine & Butter Sauce” with 5 pieces of Bread. It was not mentioned anywhere on the menu that it was gonna be so spicy. I took a bite and had to down most of the sangria to ease the burning sensation on my tongue. Discrimination against non-spicy eaters: another mood-dampener.
Octopus in a Parsley, Onion, Bell Pepper & Vinegar Sauce. With 6 potatoes. Loved this one- tender and flavorful.

Cubes of Pork Loin mixed with Fried Cube Potatoes, and Littleneck Clams Simmered in White Wine Sauce. Littleneck is the name given to the smallest of the clam species. They were small indeed; with really tiny bits of flesh. Pork was lukewarm. Potato cubes was hot and nicely fried. Not really a fan of this land-and-sea fusion dish.

Sardines. Not bad.
Piri-Piri Chicken, served with Fries, Rice & Salad. Loved the rice, lovely texture, reminded me of couscous. Chicken was perfectly spiced; even for a non-spicy eater like me. Piri-Piri is a spice blend that originated from Mozambique spelled “peri-peri meaning “pepper-pepper. Manager came to explain that we would soon be able to get this chicken in cartons, in certain retail outlets; just had to heat up in the oven. Looking forward to that indeed!

Tenderloin Steak in Beer Sauce topped with a Fried Egg, also served with Fries, Rice and Salad. Sauce was Very bitter, didn’t do justice to the meat at all.

Time for dessert. Was really looking forward to the Sawdust Pudding but was told by apologetic server that it was sold out. Again! Manager probably saw our looks of disappointment and came over to offer us some custard pie topped with cinnamon and shots of port.
In summary: would prob return for the chicken; maybe call ahead to order the sausage in advance.
