• Portuguese • Long Branch
Booked 11 times today
Portugal: Land of ExplorersIn the 15th Century, Prince Henry the navigator ordered his explorers to bring back to Portugal any exotic fruits, nuts and plants from the new lands. Tomatoes and potatoes are taken to Europe, Brazilian pineapples were introduced to Azores, Brazilian chili peppers grew in Angola, African coffee was transplanted to Brazil.Today the Portuguese fondness for ingredients like cinnamon or curry powder, is also a legacy of his time. The Romans brought wheat and introduced onion, garlic, olives and grapes. Later the Moors were the first to plant rice and introduced figs, planted groves of lemons, oranges and almond trees. Portugal is a seafaring nation with a well-developed fishing industry trading cod since the 15th century.Today, naturally, Portuguese cuisine varies from region to region , but fresh fish and shellfish are found on virtually every menu.

    I had no idea what to expect. I think the best description would be “an upscale sports bar”. If you get one of the upgraded tables is very nice. Otherwise you are just sitting at a bar table with HUGE TVs. The menu is pretty diverse and the all the things we had were pretty good. The noise level is pretty high. It’s tricky to have a conversation.

    I enjoy the WCP very much so. I like how they have different events, such as live music and other cool things to attend. Their menu is extensive and offers a great variety of options, including vegetarian/vegan dishes, which I appreciate!! Also, they have a full mock-tail menu, which makes it a friendly and fun place for non-drinkers as well. Our server Jane was wonderful: knowledgeable, kind, and patient with all of our questions. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend WCP as a destination near the Jersey shore.
