Favorite foods during uni life - All about Portuguese foods !

Food again... and food again !
Portuguese foods are so difficult to find in Indonesia, because to be honest I never find any T___T
Well...Since I can't eat these foods so often like what I used to be, I'm just going to make memories of it.
I have no idea when did I start falling in love with Portuguese foods, but they are REALLY delicious!
From all of Portuguese foods, I choose 3 foods I love the most, they are : Nando's chicken peri peri, Portuguese tart and Portuguese grill.

Let's start from the most favorite one...

Nando's is a South African casual dining restaurant which its recipe comes from Mozambican - Portuguese community. This food has unique flavor of " peri- peri" (African bird's eye chilly). Back to uni life in Malaysia, I couldn't find any delicious foods since all Malaysian foods are plain ( I think). I like food that has bold taste especially spicy one...and  I found this restaurant! First time of trying I was really happy that finally I could find the FIRST food that was suitable with my taste ! hehehe =P

I used to order 1 quarter chicken with two side orders ( choice of fries, Mediterranean rice, corn, grilled veggies, coleslaw and many more. Aaaaaaaa ~ taste of heaven <3

For something sweet, I choose Portuguese tart as a best dessert in town ( and my father loves it too). No matter how much I eat them, I just never get bored of tasting it =), This food can be found in many places like food court, mals and near my uni. In Jakarta, they sell it in a cake shop called Golden Egg (this place is really famous of its egg tarts).

Last Portuguese food that amazed me with the taste is Portuguese grill ! It is a grilled of seafood that use aluminium foil for grilling. For the seafood itself, u can choose fish, prawn, squid or clams. The best Portuguese grill I ever tasted is located in Oasis food court at Mid Valley Mall , Malaysia. It is spicy, salty and really delicious if u eat it with hot plain rice !

My favorite one - Grilled stingray with lady finger

Lala (clam) with lady finger

From what I wrote above, I have bad & good news.

The bad news is Indonesia used to have Nando's as one of the best restaurant in Jakarta but they closed it long time ago..

and the GOOD news is Portuguese grill is opening soon at Emporium Mal , Jakarta !!! Tadaaaaaa.. can't wait to eat  =D
