I have had Frangos charcoal chicken at their Bella Vista branch (close to work), but am not sure why it tasted much better here.
So lunch was 1/2 charcoal chicken ($10), small fries ($6) and giblets Portuguese style ($12). The chicken has a nice charcoal flavour, still juicy inside and saucey outside. The portion for 1/2 chicken is quite small, so if you expect half a chicken like roast chicken from the roasters, you better order a whole chicken (especially if you are sharing, otherwise 1/2 chicken is more than enough for 1). The giblets were not just giblets, but it also had chicken liver and chicken hearts. I love chicken giblets and hearts but not so much the liver. The sauce was smokey with paprika flavours, savoury tasting, awesome dunking the fries into it. To ensure you fully enjoy your meal. you have to ask for their famous Peri-Peri sauce and mayonnaise. Mixing both the Peri-Peri sauce and mayonnaise and eating it with the chicken and fries is so soo goood!!

Opposite the road from Frangos, is where you can find La Patisserie. It is famous Pasteis de nata, which is Portuguese style egg tarts. I walked across after lunch and had 2 egg tarts and 1 custard coconut tart. Both were so good, I was laughing out loud as I was eating it!!!!!! The egg tart had a crispy shell, and the burnt sugar on the top is so goood. The custard coconut tart is soft and the coconut bits are at the bottom. This tart is very sweet but extremely yummmy - cant have too much of it though.
