Chico's Place

At this unassuming Portuguese restaurant, there's cod-and-jumbo-clam stew; deep-fried cod with onions and fried potatoes in garlic sauce; grilled cod with steamed potatoes, olive oil, and garlic sauce; cod covered in onions and mayonnaise with mashed potatoes; and a lot more. Of the 30 or so entrées on the regular menu, 15 are cod dishes and none are poultry (though there are a couple on the smaller Brazilian menu). Don't try to go low-fat or low-carb. Olive oil is good for you, and more important, hearty comfort food is what they do best.
