Traditional Sweet Dishes
Pastel de nata
Porto’s beloved custard tart forms its caramelized, speckled top when the custard meets extreme oven heat, creating tiny sunbursts of flavor on flaky pastry.
Toucinho do céu
Toucinho do céu translates to "bacon of heaven," and despite the name it is a church-born almond and egg yolk confection that earned its title because of its rich, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
Rabanadas
Rabanadas started as a clever way to rescue stale bread, soaking slices in milk or wine, frying them, and finishing with sugar and cinnamon to become a Christmas staple in Porto.
Traditional Savory Dishes
Francesinha
The Francesinha began in Porto when an emigrant mixed French sandwich ideas with local appetite, producing a towering meat-and-cheese sandwich drowned in a secretive beer and tomato sauce, often crowned with a fried egg.
Bacalhau à Gomes de Sá
Bacalhau à Gomes de Sá was created by a 19th-century Porto merchant who turned salted cod with potatoes, onions, olives, and eggs into a comforting, now emblematic family dish.
Tripas à moda do Porto
Tripas à moda do Porto comes from a legendary act of civic sacrifice, when Porto gave its best meat to sailors and kept the tripe, earning the city the nickname "tripeiros" and a hearty, spicy stew.
Traditional Beverages
Port wine
Port wine gets its name from Porto because the fortified wines were aged and traded in cellars on the city’s riverside, and the old rabelo boats used to carry barrels down the Douro are still an evocative symbol.
Ginjinha
Ginjinha is a punchy sour cherry liqueur often served with a whole cherry at the bottom of the glass, and locals enjoy it in quick, cheerful sips at tiny street stalls.
Vinho verde
Vinho verde means "young wine," it often has a lively spritz from residual carbon dioxide, and it was made to be drunk young and crisp alongside seafood and summer fare.

Het weer wisselde van fel zonlicht naar plotselinge regen. Pak lagen kleding en een compact opvouwbare paraplu, soms gebruik je beide op één dag.

Veel kleinere musea hebben op bepaalde dagen gratis ochtenden, check de site van elk museum. Kom bij opening om lokale schoolgroepen vóór te zijn.

Ribeira bij zonsondergang voelde overvol, dure drankjes en opdringerige verkopers. Nog steeds mooi, maar niet de rustige waterkant die ik verwachtte.

Als je van boeken houdt, ga dan als eerste naar Livraria Lello, anders sla de lange rij over en geniet van de architectuur van buiten.

Porto verraste me, tegels overal, portwijntours zijn leuk, het eten was fantastisch, smalle straatjes zijn charmant maar verwacht veel heuvels.
