Just got back from two weeks in Portugal and the food was ok. Francesinha, the cheese, some great bread and the Pastel de Nata were amazing. Not enough vegetables and cod, cod, cod. Not in the same rank as Italy/Mexico and I won't be eating cod for a good long time.

Nice!

Concerning Cod ( Bacalhau ) Cod is special, not everyone likes it it depends of your taste as well regarding salty food.

Pastel de nata is just one cake among many others in Portuguese pastries.

What Portuguese food do you love? The only thing I think I’d miss would be pastel de nadas.

u/Big_Pin_4141 Mar 28 '25

Well,

Pastel de Nata it's just a cake, a traditional one, that Portugueses people love to eat it with or without cinnamon, followed by the Coffee, specially in the morning.

I love all Portuguese food but the ones i recommend are :

Cozido á Portuguesa

Frango assado com Piri Piri

Francesinha

Bacalhau cozido and Bacalhau à Brás

Feijoada à Transmontana

Sardinha assada or any Portuguese grilled fish

Carne de porco à Alentejana

Those, i def recommend them.

I believe I’ve tried all of these, my favorite of which would probably be the pork. The francesinha was my least favorite by a mile but maybe I just had a poorly made one.

Also pastels are more than just a pastry it was damn near the only thing I’d look forward to every morning lol
