Lisbon Belém District Cuisine - Adega de Belém

Tips for exploring Lisbon: When in doubt about what to eat, just head to a restaurant with “Adega” in its name 👍 You can’t go wrong with that choice 🫡 “Adega” is a Portuguese word that refers to a “wine cellar” or “wine repository.” The term is used to describe a place where wine is stored, typically located underground or semi-basement, providing the ideal temperature and humidity conditions for wine storage. In traditional Portuguese culture, an adega is not just a place for storing wine; it can also be a space for gathering, where people come to taste wine, socialize, and even hold family or friend gatherings. So the food has its own characteristics, and the owners are very friendly and will chat with us 😊 #LisbonLocalGuide #LisbonCuisine #LisbonFoodAndFun #LisbonOneDayTour
