Step into Churrasqueira Portugalia, Saint-Gilles' lively Portuguese grill. Share charcoal-grilled meat and a glass of wine in a noisy, cheerful room that feels closer to Lisbon than Brussels.
Full description

This is literally the driest chicken i had in my life . It does not taste as if it was done on the charcoal. The order came really fast and it feels this was cooked and reheated a few times before it came to me. Really bad.
