🍽️ Michelin Chef’s Portuguese Tapas & Iconic Egg Tarts 🇵🇹
💎 Hidden in San Jose Downtown – 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). 💙 The place radiates tradition — decorated with beautiful blue-and-white azulejo tiles that make you feel like you’re in Lisbon! With the warm weather, dining outside with a gentle breeze and a drink in hand is just perfect. 😌🍹 Every dish was a delight — one better than the next: 🥪 Francesinha Portugal’s 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! 🤤 🐙 Octopus Oven-Roasted in Olive Oil Tender, smoky, and full of Mediterranean flavor. The olive oil infusion is everything! 🌿 🍍 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. 🍸 🍮 Pastel de Nata You can’t leave without trying these authentic Portuguese egg tarts. Flaky crust + warm egg custard filling, served with cinnamon and powdered sugar. Best enjoyed hot! 🔥 💖 Petiscos 📍 399 S 1st St, San Jose Perfect for date nights, friends gathering, or anyone craving real Portuguese flavors! #BayAreaFood #FoodieFind #PortugueseFood #SanJoseEats #MichelinEats #TapasLovers #GlobalEats
