Portuguese culture

[Faliro]

Time for Porto's and Portugal's most famous sandwich, the francesinha.



It's just bread with cheese and verious kinds of smoked meat/sausages, but it tastes delicious. The magic, as always, is in the sauce.

It's delicious and often spicy.

As you can see, Faliro, eating is a big part of what you are.

[Faliro]

Good food is very important. As my dad used to tell me, there are so few genuine pleasures in life - eating good food is definitely one of them.

Pastéis de Tentúgal.

They were considered several times the best in the world. The first time back on the 50's.
Don't know if they are in fact, but taste damn good... A piece of heaven.

Guia's piri-piri chicken is an absolute must if you ever go there. The sauce... 

[Faliro]

OK maybe we should change the subject... this is making me hungry now... the chicken looks amazing.

OK maybe we should change the subject... this is making me hungry now... the chicken looks amazing.

This summer, I ate it at my hotel while watching Benfica winning. If every night was like that, I'd have my life completed.

The great travesseiro de Sintra and the pastel de Belém are missing...

If you ever visit Lisboa/Sintra you must try this, the queijadinhas de Sintra too.
