When I first launched ImmigrantFoodie, I dreamed of discovering restaurants like Chiveve; spectacular hidden gems that serve dishes that linger in your mind months after the fact. Moreover, Chiveve is the kind of restaurant that makes you believe in true love.
A husband who gave up his career as a lawyer and now commutes for an over an hour so his wife could fulfill her dream of running a Mozambican restaurant in Portugal. If you go to Chiveve, Edner will be taking orders while Sheila whips up literal magic in the kitchen: The best samosas in Lisbon, chili shrimp Matapa, and a grilled chicken that’s mopped up in a refreshing coconut sauce.
It’s a small restaurant with big flavors, and entering it feels like stepping into a family home with an even bigger heart; a real soul kitchen where every client is a regular.
