You can find Levi working on the truck day in and day out. With his passion for food and Portuguese background, Levi set out on a mission to open a unique culinary experience. Portu-Galo became the first authentic Portuguese food truck in the country.
Traveling to Portugal dozens of times has given Levi an extensive familiarity with the Portuguese culture and cuisine that he tries to incorporate into the PORTU-GALO experience everyday.
The food
PORTU-GALO's mission is to serve fresh, quality Portuguese street food with a twist. Each and every morning the freshest meats are picked up from a local Providence Butcher shop. Fresh baked authentic breads are also picked up daily from a local Portuguese bakery. The marinades used are nothing more than fresh garlic, sea salt and a couple of other simple ingredients. Quality and simplicity is what Portuguese cuisine is all about.
