Restaurant Week wrapped up with a sweet finale in Taunton, and this stop hit especially close to home.
The MGM Show’s final Restaurant Week visit brought us to Cantinho dos Acores Restaurant, a cozy Portuguese spot tucked inside the Taunton Eagle Soccer Club. The moment the food started hitting the table, it felt like stepping back into my childhood.
Growing up, I spent a lot of time at my Vavó’s house. The second you opened the door, the smell of caldo verde (kale soup) would smack you right in the face. She loved to cook and bake, and somehow those comforting aromas always lingered through the house even when she wasn’t actively in the kitchen. So whenever I visit a Portuguese restaurant, I tend to lean into those memories.
