Portugal
During the tours I guide, we often talk about Portuguese cuisine and what to eat that is really unique in the country.
Naturally, among other delicacies, we talk about alheiras and farinheiras, two different sausages you can only find in Portugal. We talk about their origins, differences, and ways to eat them.
Aveiro is intersected by canals, genuine streets of water, along which can be seen gliding the brightly coloured boats known as barcos moliceiros. Originally founded in the time of the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius, Aveiro is now one of the most interesting cities on the Portuguese coast.
In Portugal there is a very popular sandwich we call bifana.
Codfish, or simply cod, is a significant icon of Portuguese gastronomy. Why? Which cod dishes are the most popular? Why do the Portuguese consume so much cod, and how did it all start?
Pataniscas and cod cakes (pastéis de bacalhau) are among the most typical snacks in Portugal.
It is very common to find cod cakes in bars and restaurants.
On the banks of the river Mondego, Coimbra is famous for its University, the oldest in Portugal and one of the oldest in Europe, which over time has shaped its image to become “the city of students”.
