What to Eat in Lisbon in 2 Days (Zero Regrets Edition!)
🇵🇹 Lisbon is a food paradise—delicious, affordable, and perfect for seafood lovers & pastry addicts! 🦞 SEAFOOD MUSTS 1️⃣ Uma Marisqueira 📍 The iconic seafood rice spot (book ahead—they only serve this!). 🍚 Rich, broth-heavy "seafood porridge" (not like Spanish paella!), loaded with crab roe and fresh seafood. 2️⃣ Cervejaria Ramiro 📍 Polarizing but worth it (requires deposit). 🦐 Red prawns (suck the umami bomb from the heads!) + barnacles (weird but tasty). Skip the spider crab. 🍞 Pro tip: Their garlic butter bread is legendary! 3️⃣ A Gaúcha 📍 Plan B after Maria Catita was full (same owners!). 🐟 Sesame-crusted tuna stole the show—Asian-friendly flavors overall. 🥧 PASTÉIS DE NATA WAR 1️⃣ Pastéis de Belém 📍 The OG egg tart (since 1837!). Less sweet, extra-crispy crust—best with cinnamon. 2️⃣ Castro 📍 My personal favorite! Flakier base + subtle cinnamon—perfect balance. 3️⃣ Manteigaria 📍 Skip it (save stomach space for others). 4️⃣ Casa Portuguesa do Pastel de Bacalhau 📍 Codfish croquettes with cheese filling—interesting but dry. Try just one! ☕ VIEWS > COFFEE Café da Garagem 📍 "Most beautiful café" (debatable). Sunset views are nice, drinks are meh. 💡 FINAL TIPS: ✔ Book restaurants EARLY (especially Ramiro/Uma). ✔ Prices will make UK students weep with joy. ✔ Seafood > egg tarts > everything else. #LisbonEats #PortugalFoodie #TravelFromUK
