When it comes to meat dishes, fevras and befe remain the undisputed leaders here. These are juicy schnitzels and burgers made from beef, which will be offered to guests in any local restaurant. It is also worth trying borrego (roasted lamb meat) and leitao (suckling pig). Meat and fish dishes are recommended to be ordered together with vegetable side dishes, such as braised carrots, green beans and cauliflower, which can be seasoned with aromatic spices and butter.
