Student sits during pledge of allegiance; gets chair kicked out from beneath him

Portuguese sounds like Russian? I've always been told it sounds like french.

Your Portuguese doesn't sound like mine.
I've watched too many Brazilian tv shows... Not only some grammar is different, and some words are used differently, but the accent makes it sound very different overall, specially to someone who doesn't understand the words.

Poca, what is typical portuguese food?

Prepare to Google!
- feijoada - beans, even different kinds of beans, and pork and some cabbage all cooked on the same pot.
- arroz de marisco - shellfish in rice (some people are considerate and remove all shells prior to serving... Some claim the shells retain flavour so the person eating is the one who should take care of them)
- bacalhau à Brás - the signature salted fish in small chunks, cooked in a pot together with very thin fries (thin as a toothpick), some scrambled eggs thrown in the mix and topped off with parsley and some olives.
- anything with bacalhau, actually.... There are books with tons of recipes for it.
- along the coast, you find lots of grilled fish.
- caldeirada, a stew with several kinds of fish thrown in.

Should I say anything about all the sweets? Many developed by bored nuns with access to lots of sugar, eggs, and cinnamon?

Same as Brazil then.
