Flame Grilled. Fully Loved.
Portuguese Flame-Grilled Chicken in Thailand
Every meal at Piri Piri Asia comes with great taste, real spices, and a famous story from Portugal that started 400 years ago.
Our story starts in the 1600s in Barcelos, Portugal. A traveler was accused of a crime he did not commit. The judge sentenced him to hang.
The traveler was taken to the judge’s dining room. Pointing at a cooked rooster on the dinner table, the traveler said: “I am innocent! To prove it, this roasted rooster will stand up and crow before you hang me!”
Everyone laughed. But right before the execution, a miracle happened: the cooked rooster stood up on the table and crowed loudly. The judge stopped the hanging right away and set the man free.
After his miracle, Mani the Rooster went on a grand journey. He traveled across the Mediterranean Sea and all of Africa, collecting the best garlic, lemons, herbs, and the famous spicy Piri Piri chilis (African bird’s eye chilis).
Mani brought these fresh Mediterranean spices all the way to Thailand. He created the Piri Piri Asia kitchen to share his family recipes with everyone.
I bring the heat, authentic Portuguese spices, and vibrant energy to every plate I serve.
I care deeply about every detail—from my handcrafted Illy coffee to my warm table service.
