What to expect
Start your morning among the locals at the oldest pastry shop in Lisbon. Taste a delicious selection of homemade sweet pastries while sipping a classic Portuguese-style espresso.
Next, you’re off to the only traditional Portuguese grocery store left in Lisbon. Your guide will explain Portugal’s obsession with salt cod, and you’ll try another beloved local product: acorn-fed Iberian ham that will practically melt in your mouth.
Time for a drink! You’ll enjoy Lisbon’s signature sour cherry liqueur at the 130-year-old family-run stall that does it best.
Your next stop is a no-frills bar serving up the best bifana (marinated pork sandwich) in the city. This buzzing bar is constantly packed with regulars who can’t get enough.
Next, it’s time for lunch, and there’s no better place to enjoy it than among Lisboetas at a traditional tasca. Settle in with your small group to try home-cooked classics of Portuguese cuisine with your choice of beer or wine.
On your way to the final stop, your guide will tell you about one of the hidden gems of Portuguese food: gourmet canned seafood! While it may have gone viral in recent years, tinned fish has been a staple of Iberian cuisine for over a century. Outside a traditional shop, you'll learn about the history of canning in Portugal.
Last but not least, you’ll finish on a sweet note with Portugal’s most famous pastry: the pastel de nata, or custard tart. You’ll learn all about their surprising history and get an up-close look at these sweet treats being made as you bite into one of your own.
