Portuguese BBQ from Newark area is no joke. You can taste that charcoal flavor! People don't know about it but it's so good

[AveiroDan]

I’m so glad you finally went to Newark for Portuguese food.
The ribs and chicken have so much flavor even without the bbq and hot sauce. They season it with just salt, keeping it simple. This technique, how they cook it, is so unique, I had a charcoal grill and rotisserie cage custom built, so that I can cook this way at home.
Love your videos, this one is extra special for me! Keep up the great work!!!!

Hey JL ... I'm glad you took my suggestion to try Calandra's bakery. Best Italian bakery in Newark.
Next time, if you want Portugese food, go to the Ironbound section of Newark. You don't even need a car. You can go by train. Ironbound starts right next to Newark Penn Station. Ferry St is the main street. Its loaded with Spanish, Portugese and Brazilian restaurants. Just pick one. It doesn't matter which one. They're all great and all have big portions.
Take another suggestion ... Try my favorite ... Casa Vasca on Elm St. Its a Basque restaurant ... from the Basque region in northeastern Spain near the Pyrenees mountains. Get the Paella Marinera, but don't try to eat it all at once.

You literally went to the best Portuguese spot we have. The price for this tray of food for a family is the best.

Omg! Every time we go home to Jersey Calandra’s and Bloomfield BBQ are our first stops. Both are sooo good! Brick City!!! 👍🏽

[fleetdagrim]

My hometown Newark NJ shines again lol! Last time I seen you went to Dickie Dee's across the street. Calandras got the banging brownies & cheesecake but kinda pricey now. The BBQ joint I like but too much rice & fries not enough meat. I m still missing my old neighborhood nearby (N. 5th st & 4th ave) but heading back soon for some grub!

[courtneyj]

That one plate can feed two people. Good find.

[valadia]

YES..Calandra's Bakery and Portuguese chicken at Bloomfield is AMAZING!!❤️🔥🔥

[carolm]

My pops and I would have lunch there back in the day when the half order was only 5 dollars! And Calandras is the best bakery in Jersey. So glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the memories 😊

[Aboishnj]

My hometown Newark, NJ. Been to Calandras they're good!

[kellypetersen]

I LOVE this place. I worked in Newark, NJ and we always ordered here. The BEST Portuguese barbecue in Newark. I send everyone here that I know. Food is great, price is awesome tooo. Enjoy!!! Blessings 😇🙏🥰❤️❤️❤️

[katrinaassoumou]

I already know what each one of those places taste like. That is my home city from where I retired in Newark, NJ. The food is very flavorful and the dessert is great. Amen

[ChamPnkng]

Pretty much EVERY restaurant in that lil Portuguese zone is Macho Man SAVAGE ! Been visiting there since 91'!!

[aliciacauthen]

Thanks JL
The beauty 😍 about living in Central Jersey 🇯🇪 is it's proximity to New York City and Philadelphia which of course 😉 are two distinctly different cities with unique cuisines. I will always remember the tastes of my birth city Newark NJ. I love the way you display ❤️ the wonderful deliciousness of these areas. Have you traversed the Tri-state of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut? I have, as a kid visiting relatives in New York and Connecticut. I'd taste 🐸 frog legs in Brooklyn and curried goat stew in New Haven.

[cylfreak]

Looks like good food. But loading you up with fries and a pile of rice is low in cost. I’d like to see more veggies rather then double carbs for 14 bucks.

[halimasultan]

I've been waiting for his video!!! Now I can eat something and watch lol

One critique if I may say, I would like to see you try the food first without dousing it in sauce like the ribs etc. It all looked beyond excellent. So delicious. But just something I noticed, and would like to see.

[tedkrush]

Thanks again for adding another stop to my list of places to try when I am in Bloomfield.

[missmarionlewis]

I love that you highlight so many places in Jersey.i feel like we always overlooked.
