๐ Hidden in San Jose Downtown โ Petiscos, a cozy Portuguese tapas bar opened by the team behind Michelin-starred Adega! They serve authentic, affordable petiscos (Portuguese-style small plates, like Spanish tapas). ๐ The place radiates tradition โ decorated with beautiful blue-and-white azulejo tiles that make you feel like youโre in Lisbon! With the warm weather, dining outside with a gentle breeze and a drink in hand is just perfect. ๐๐น Every dish was a delight โ one better than the next: ๐ฅช Francesinha Portugalโs famous Francesinha sandwich! Stuffed with ham, sausage, and steak, smothered in melted cheese, topped with a runny egg, and drenched in a rich tomato-beer sauce. Each bite is a mix of savory meat, creamy cheese, soft bread, and tangy-spicy sauce. Absolutely heavenly! ๐คค ๐ Octopus Oven-Roasted in Olive Oil Tender, smoky, and full of Mediterranean flavor. The olive oil infusion is everything! ๐ฟ ๐ Acoreana Cocktail A must-try! Made with 18-year white rum, fresh passion fruit, pineapple juice, and coconut milk. Creamy, fruity, and refreshing with a nice textural kick. ๐ธ ๐ฎ Pastel de Nata You canโt leave without trying these authentic Portuguese egg tarts.
