Dom António: Our first "Pilgrim" meal

by haikutaxi

Dom António is a popular local restaurant that has lots of inexpensive daily plates ... including a "pilgrim" special for those walking the Caminho Portugués. It is located in the historic pedestrian zone of Barcelos. down a short passageway on the street level of an old town house. The interior is very simple and rustic, the service efficient and polite. The restaurant features hearty soups, bacalhau Dom António (a popular house specialty containing codfish, onions, and potatoes), shellfish rice, grilled salmon, grilled steaks, and grilled pork chops. We opted for the salmon dinner from the daily "pilgrim" menu ... we got wine, soup, fish, potatoes, dessert and coffee all for an extremely affordable price. The food was simple but fresh and delicious and the portions were enormous.

5 Sentidos: Casa do Largo: Seafood for the Senses in Cascais

by alexchip

On a sunny winter day in Cascais we had our best Portuguese lunch at 5 Sentidos-Casa do Largo. Reservations were easy to make on the website, the interior was enchanting, the portions were huge and a great value, and the food delicious. They have a little porch running alongside the ivy covered cottage restaurant and in warm weather a table al fresco would be divine. The restaurant is really a little house, with a few tables in each room to create a sense of intimacy but open French doors instead of walls to create an open and airy ambience. Sunlight filled the brightly decorated bar and lower floor, a working fireplace flickering in the background. Locals sip wine and fill the space with enough rolling Portuguese to make you feel an “insider” while at the same time maintaining a cozy and quiet atmosphere. There is also an upstairs dining room but I recommend a downstairs table to enjoy...

Tertulia do Monte: Refined Local Flavor in Estoril

by alexchip

Tertulia do Monte is located on a cute tree-lined street in Estoril, a short taxi ride or long walk along the beach from Cascais. The exterior is nondescript, but the interior is warm, cozy, fresh, and inviting. Reservations were difficult to make over email--we called using Skype or you could email your hotel concierge to do so. There is also a wine store across the street that does tastings, which could be a fun pre-dinner activity. We recommend requesting a "high" table on the left, which is more intimate. Our waiter was very friendly, spoke English well, and accommodated our request to split two entrees. The food came out in perfect portion size and elegant presentation. The recommended wine pairings fit the dishes perfectly.We started with the lemon risotto and fish of the day. The lemon flavor was fresh, bright, but a little overpowering. The fish, however, was perfectly cooked and...

Pedro dos Frangos: Incredible spit-roasted chicken ... and more!

by haikutaxi

There are actually two Pedro dos Frangos, directly opposite each other on the street and virtually identical ... long and narrow spaces with a bar area and a few tables on the ground level and an upstairs dining room. We were staying only a few blocks away and ended up eating here several times (at both places). We chose to eat at the bar and rub elbows with the locals ... the service was fast and the prices somewhat cheaper than upstairs at a table. Sitting at the bar was casual and comfortable and we got a ringside seat to watch the cook turning the chickens on their skewers over the charcoal fire. The Frango no espeto (spit-roasted chicken) is their specialty and there was a steady stream of locals coming in to pick up take-away. The portions are enormous but you can order half-portions (more than enough for me with the accompanying crispy fried potatoes, rice and a salad). On...

McDonald's Imperial - Porto: An Art Deco masterpiece

by haikutaxi

In the 1940's - 80's this was the Café Imperial and according to locals it got a bit run down and McDonald's was allowed to take over the premises. The former coffee house is classified as somewhat of a national monument and is located on the Praca da Liberdade in the heart of Porto. McDonald's retained many of the building’s original features, such as the logo and stained-glass windows, huge mirrors and crystal chandeliers while, of course, adding some of its own corporate touches. It's quite fantastic. If you wish you can order the usual menu of burgers and fries at the large counter. The separate McCafe counter offered very good cappuccinos and lattes with a nice selection of pastries ... much more appealing to me. Best of all is the free WiFi combined with comfortable seating and no pressure at all to buy anything. It's a great spot to catch up on your e-mail, have a coffee and use...

100 Maneiras: They Keep It Coming.

by TouristKris

The 10 course tasting menu with or without the wine pairing is so worth it. I'm not a big wine drinker so I just took a sip of my partners and the staff didn't seem to mind. Everthing I tasted was delicious.

Antigo Primeiro de Maio: Local and Authentic.

by TouristKris

This small and busy restaurant was recommended by Paulo tne manager of our apartment. He has been coming here for 30 years. This was where I had my birthday dinner and it was a hoot. Crazy crowded and all the menu was in Portuguese. The waiter had fun with us and explained everything in English. In fact, he explained it in a few languages to other tables around us. Our waiter even had a naughty joke for us at the end of the meal giving us a huge laugh. Seafood.

That one: Eating in Portugal

by solopes

Eating is the Portuguese's favorite sport. So, there are "stadiums" all over the country. Don't waste your time asking for the best cuisine - everybody will tell you that the best is their local cuisine. And they are being honest, each one prefers his own recipes. Wherever you go, you may find some special menus, sometimes exclusively in that restaurant or region, and many of them drag thousands of visitors to... eat.So, being Portuguese, don't get surprised if I tell you that, after tasting dozens of different cuisines, I agree that the best one is... yes, Portuguese. I could tell you about lots of dishes, for instance bacalhau, cooked in 100 different ways (and one more, the one I tasted today at lunch). And Cozido a Portuguesa, and Leitao a Bairrada, and Cabrito, and cataplana of... and...Excuse-me, I have to stop, it's dinner time. But do come, and see for yourself. Believe me, if...

Botequim da Mouraria: Best Meal in Portugal

by jamesinnyc

Botequim da Mouraria is a small 12 stool counter, and has an amazing wine selection. I ordered whatever the owner told me to which ended up being a fish. He brought out the whole fish and ask which piece I wanted, it was delicious and fresh and also included homemade potato chips and a platter of sliced tomatoes and onions!! This restaurant is worth to drive out to Évora Tomatoes sliced with onions olive oil and salt
