I've been on a bifana spree this week...next stop Ninho De Portugal on Sherbrook. This is indeed a hidden gem as I almost missed this place when I was on the hunt for some Portuguese grocery items a while ago. It's on a quiet and maybe not so great section of Sherbrook Street between William Ave and Logan. The signage isn't very noticeable as it's located in a warehouse type building.
This is a small no frills Portuguese grocery store that happens to sell some ready to eat food in the back. I've shopped here before but I am not sure why I never sampled their sandwiches until recently. All I can say is that "WOW!" The bifana (pork sandwich) is $3.35 - you get a ridiculously large sandwich. I mean other than convenience as I don't work or live anywhere near here, I would totally get my lunch from here every week. The homemade bun is absolutely delicious, a little crusty on the outside and soft and fluffy inside. The sandwich is is filled with a few large pieces of pork cutlets, tons of cooked onions and lots of hot sauce. The onions and hot sauce are optional but you should get it - it totally makes the sandwich. The hot sauce had a good kick to it and adds a ton of flavour. I am drooling as I write this... oh and a side note, don't eat this in the car like I tried to as it can get messy.
They also sell a cheese sandwich and a paio and cheese sandwich - both were around $3. They also serve up a daily soup and the most delicious roasted potatoes that seemed really inexpensive. I got about 5 pieces of roasted potatoes for $0.84. Very flavourful potatoes, it might be a bit salty for some but I really liked them.
Service was prompt. No place to sit down so it's all take out! All I can say it's - great flavours, huge portions and easy on the wallet! Less than $5 lunch and you are full! Love, love, love.
Open Tues-Fri 8:30am to 6:00 pm. Sat 7:30 am - 5:30 pm. Closed Sun & Mon.
