🍽️ What to Eat in Porto? My Ultimate Food Guide!!! 🇵🇹
A Bolina (17:00-midnight) - Google Rating: 4.8 This cozy little gem near Dom Luís I Bridge 🌉 is pure magic!!! The tiny space feels like a neighborhood wine bar 🍷 with walls covered in postcards that tell stories of time passing 📜 Each small plate is perfect for sharing - we wish we'd arrived earlier to try their famous chicken gizzards 😭 What We Ordered: 🐙 Octopus Salad - Cold octopus with perfect texture, served with a light vinaigrette 🥪 Portuguese Sandwich - Simple but delicious, especially with the house-made sausage 🌭 Portuguese Sausage - A bit salty on its own but perfect with bread (like a true petisco!) Atmosphere: Locals galore - families dining, couples chatting 💕 With Ribeira views right outside, it's ideal for a relaxed evening with friends 🌆 ⚠️ Pro Tip: Arrive before 18:30 to avoid the crowd!!! Fábrica de Nata (8:00-22:00) - Google Rating: 4.6 The best pastel de nata we found in Porto!!! (Though still not as good as Lisbon's century-old version 😅) Highlights: ✨ Less sweet than other versions ✨ Crispy puff pastry ✨ Rich egg custard flavor Perfect with a morning coffee ☕ or afternoon tea 🍵 Sandeman Wine Experience (11:00-16:00) - Google Rating: 4.7 Our must-do Porto activity!!! What to Expect: • 20-30 min English tour (no Chinese option) • Tasting of 2 different Port wines • Learn about: Sweet vs dry varieties Aging processes How brandy affects flavor Pro Tips: ✔️ Book ahead - spots fill fast!!! ✔️ Price varies by tasting selection ✔️ Perfect souvenir - buy wine directly at the cellar 🍷 Important Notes: 🌟 Restaurants have limited hours - check before visiting!!! 🌟 All reviews reflect personal tastes - yours might differ 😉 Final Thoughts: Porto's food scene is unbelievably diverse!!!
