What to Eat in Southern Portugal đŸ‡”đŸ‡č - Faro Region 💛

Dining in Portugal is effortlessly more delicious and cost-effective than in the UK. Here’s a quick rundown of what we ate in Southern Portugal. 【Faro】 🍱 CentenĂĄrio: Our first meal in Southern Portugal—so happy to enjoy lunch under the sun! Loved the Portuguese kebab, essentially the prototype of Brazilian churrasco. The giant skewers were satisfying. 🩐 Taberna ZĂ©-ZĂ©: A popular spot in Faro, worth a visit. The owner is a master of marketing, bombarding us with his YouTube ads during the meal. The razor clams were plump and delicious. đŸ„Ș Cafetaria Chelsea Coffee & Brunch: Meh, very standard Western-style brunch. 【Carvoeiro】 ☕ Padaria FĂĄbrica Velha: Highly recommended! A super local breakfast joint filled with elderly regulars. Their bakery selection was great, and I miss the crispy Portuguese egg tarts. Closed on Sundays. ☕ Pastelaria LĂ© Doce | Ledoce Coffee: Went here because the above was closed on Sunday. Crazy cheap—coffee for €1.60, cash only. 🐟 Restaurante Casa Algarvia: A bustling restaurant with an open kitchen where you can watch chefs stir-frying over high heat. Fresh seafood is displayed at the entrance, and servers bring around the catch of the day to each table. đŸ· Taste Restaurante Carvoeiro: A newer-looking spot that serves Sunday roast (a testament to the British invasion of Southern Portugal). Delicious! 【PortimĂŁo】 🍰 BistrĂŽ CafĂ© com Farofa: A charming cafĂ© near the harbor. We wandered in randomly, and though the owner didn’t speak English, several customers jumped in to translate. They highly recommended the homemade cakes—and they were indeed tasty. 🐙 Carvi: Several restaurants were closed for winter in February, but we stumbled upon this place while Googling options. The vibe was nostalgic, with a freezer and fish tank at the entrance, reminiscent of old-school eateries. It was Valentine’s Day, and they’d decorated with a heart—so sweet. 【Lagos】 đŸŠȘ O MexilhĂŁo: A modern Portuguese restaurant where mussels are a must-order (we got the last pot). They also serve some innovative dishes that looked risky but turned out alright. #Travel #FoodieAdventures #PortugueseCuisine #Faro #PortugalTravel #HiddenGems #EuropeTravel #SouthernPortugal
