Trip Portugal - Traditional Portuguese food

By portugal | portugal | 7 Jan 2021


Today my article is a little different, I will talk about traditional Portuguese food that is widely recognized worldwide. To prove this fact when visiting my country, Portugal come to a restaurant with typical Portuguese food and try one of the dishes that I will talk about.

The first traditional dish is the well-known "Francesinha". To eat this traditional Portuguese food, you have to go to the second largest city in Portugal, where I live, Porto. The "Francesinha" usually ask if they want with chips and egg, for me a real francesinha has to have chips and egg but I would like to warn you if you want to eat because you will be well composed.

Sande de leitão, is also one of the sandwiches that the Portuguese usually like a lot. The ideal place to eat these magnificent sandwiches is in the city of Mealhada, very close to Coimbra in central Portugal. In this small town you will find several restaurants and therefore there will be no shortage to choose from.

This food we usually call steak on the stone, if you love meat you will love this dish. You should ask if you want it well done or rare to have the steak to your taste. This type of dish is most popular in northern Portugal.

At Christmas we usually have typical Portuguese food and desserts. Like "Bolo Rei", "Pudim", "Tarte de nos", french toast etc ... In Portugal I can guarantee you that at Christmas you will put on a few pounds, because there is no shortage of food on the table and of course good wines.

The Portuguese stew, with these photos, I already start to miss Christmas, but I’m not short of it either. In winter we also usually drink red wine and go with a good Portuguese cheese.

We also like to eat some tapas, I happen to be a fan of cheese so everything that brings cheese will love it. Here in these tapas I drank a wild fruit sangria and ate some tapas with cheese and bacon.
