Frango charcoal chicken is a Portuguese restaurant chain established in 1992 by the Fernandez family. Frango's dishes are those of generational family recipes incorporating spices from Angola and Charcoal cooking techniques from Portugal. Stating in Petersham in 1992 the restaurant chain now has 5 locations and I decided to visit the one in Bella Vista at Shop 5, 29-31 Lexington Drive, Bella Vista to see what it was all about.

Charcoal Chicken
The Charcoal Chicken was one of the must haves when visiting Frango's, this is due to being featured in a wide range of publications from the Daily Telegraph, Sydney Morning heralds good food guide and food Safari. When ordering you can choose the size of chicken you want from a quarter, half or whole. I recommend you get a whole chicken because it is just that good with it having a sticky and salty skin due to being to perfection on charcoal while still being succulent and juicy in the middle.

The Original Portuguese Burger
Alongside the Charcoal Chicken Frango's is known for its chicken burger. The Burger is a soft baked bun with marinated chicken breast piece, iceberg lettuce tomato and cheese in the middle. The sauce in the burger however is star with a mixture of a secret recipe piri piri Chilli sauce and mayonnaise. This combination is great as along with the perfectly cooked and juicy piece of chicken and the fresh shredded lettuce the piri piri sauce provides the perfect amount of spice while then being cooled down by the mayonnaise. The Sauces are even that good that i saw people getting the sauce on top of their hot chips.
Final thoughts
To conclude Frango's is a great Portuguese restaurant with brilliant food from their charcoal chicken to their Portuguese chicken burger with the piri piri chilli sauce and mayonnaise. With the option to eat in or take away and numerous locations across Sydney I will for sure visit again.
