What should you do?
Sofia lived just a few minutes away and Paul-Simon visited it before meeting her!
Couple's highlights: Ribeira d'Ilhas, Praia do Sul, Praia dos Pescadores
Be sure to eat the chourizo bread (pão com chouriço)
You can wander around and have some pastéis de Belém!
What should you eat and drink?
Caldo verde (soup)
Probably Paul-Simons' favorite Portuguese dish
Carne de Porco à Alentejana (main)
Sofia's favorite dish since she can remember
Bacalhau à Brás (main)
There is a reason why Portugal eats so much codfish... and this is one of it
If you are vegetarian, you can always ask for "vegetais à brás" - equally as delicious!
Queijo da Serra
Do we need more words when mentioning cheese?...
Vinho verde (alcoholic)
One of the things Sofia misses the most in Portugal!
Compal (juice)
There is a reason why this is the favorite soda of Portuguese people...
