Car Rental at 'Porto Campanha - Train Station'

Some experts call the Portuguese cuisine "a peasant type" for its simplicity and density. Meat and fish are the basis of vast majority of national dishes. The main side dish is cabbage, which is prepared in various ways. We should definitely mention caldo verde among the dishes of the national cuisine. This is a hearty potato soup with cabbage. Seafood lovers will enjoy bacalhau (braised cod), which is usually served with Turkish peas as a side dish. Local restaurants have dishes for all kinds of visitors including fans of exotic cuisine. The names of many fish used in dishes speak for themselves - wolf bass, swordfish, or monkfish. The dishes that are prepared by local chefs from these products are no less exotic.

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. Restaurants serving national cuisine will be surely loved by the sweet tooth travellers as simply each of them offers widest choice of interesting cakes, fruit salads and pastries, as well as aromatic coffee.
