Everything about Food and Wine
Porto on Foot
One full day lost to a massive power outage across Southern France, Spain and Portugal but we made up for it with an early start the next morning in Porto.
Porto on Foot II
After soaking in the tiled beauty of São Bento station under the blazing midday sun, we made a strategic detour, straight to Time Out Market next door.
Porto Cathedral
Porto Cathedral took our breath away - quite literally, after the climb!
Porto on Foot III
After taking in the grandeur of Porto Cathedral, we wandered over to the iconic Luís I Bridge
Castro Pastéis de Nata
We had tried quite a few pastéis de nata this trip, but Castro might take the crown.
Porto on Foot IV
Downhill, uphill, cobbled streets and centuries-old facades, today was Porto at her finest.
Restaurante Emotivo
It was not just a dinner; it was a delicious guessing game, a celebration of Portugal’s rich culinary soul and the perfect finale to our Porto adventure.
The Basilica of Our Lady of Fátima
A spiritual detour from Lisbon to Porto brought us to Fátima, a place of prayer, peace, and pilgrimage.
Casa Plátano
The space was bright and comfortable, perfect for a break. Food-wise, it was decent.
Brasão Antas
After settling into our Porto apartment, we walked over to Brasão Antas, a buzzing local bistro just down the street.
National Palace of Pena
If Disney built a castle in Portugal, it would probably look something like this.
Parque da Pena
The park was like a fairytale forest - lush, tranquil, and bathed in golden morning light.
