Padaria By Chef Andre Leite

Wasn’t sure what this place was. Walked in got some items out of the hot box in front. It was really good tried to go back and every time they seem to be closed. Not sure if they went out of business or maybe a vacation? Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3

Chef Andre and his staff are extremely welcoming and helpful i ordered a party pack of coxinhas and brigadeiros. Chances are if you 're from Michigan you haven 't had Brazilian food because it 's so limited here. Coxinhas are balls of chicken and cheese covered by a ball of mashed potatoes and then rolled in breadcrumbs and fried. By default, padiera has the best coxinhas in Michigan. but seriously it was FILLED with chicken and was so tasty. They are really really tasty. The pao de quejo was absolutely fantastic as well. It 's like an extra starchy cheese bread. I couldn 't even get a photo because it was eaten so fast Seriously if you 've never had Brazilian food, you 're missing out. Come here for some great service, great food, and a good atmosphere. Update: after our catering I 'm even more impressed. The brigadieros were fantastic the mini coxinhas were much larger than I expected and got the approval of a room full of Brazilians. Make sure you check this place out!
