[@marcbentley7839]

I had the pleasure of vacationing in Lisbon as a child with my family (in the early 1960s). Two things that really stand out out in my memory was Gouda cheese (I still love it even though I remember it being much better in Lisbon) and a sausage that some locals grilled for us that resembled American hot dogs but were thinner, and had the casing on them. They "squealed" when grilled. They were so good! I don't think Portugal had "hot dogs" at the time we were in Lisbon, so I'd like to ask if that sausage sounds familiar to you and what the name of it might be. Loved visiting your country!

[@100Saco-61]

@@marcbentley7839 one thing that i find strange in your memories is that you associate gouda cheese with Portugal. Gouda cheese is a dutch cheese produced in the city of Gouda. However there is some similarity with gouda cheese and a cheese produced in Portugal that we call by the generic name of "queijo flamengo" (flemish cheese). It makes sense. The thin sausage you remember eating is maybe "linguiça". It's a kind of thin chorizo. Google this link and let me know if that's you were talking about. www.360hyper.pt/minipreco/cascais/lingui%C3%A7a-extra-escolha-econ%C3%B3mica?gclid=Cj0KCQiA7YyCBhD_ARIsALkj54rKUQTeQZyJFTpVWLy2nej2pLdetJ3aCNRjd5pC8Lvu4mfd3mO_wgwaAofFEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

[@marcbentley7839]

@@100Saco-61 Thank you Jorge! I wasn't aware that Gouda was from the Netherlands. Lisbon was the first place I ever tasted it, so I assumed it was from there. It did have the red wax coating that I associate with Gouda. Then again, the locals I referred to might have been Dutch! We met them at a camping ground near the beach. As I said, I was a child. I did look at the website you suggested about linguica, but the product I had looked more like cachchoro or cachorrinho maybe?. It was smooth in texture. Nevertheless, they were both delicious! Thanks again for responding. I guess I'll have to revisit your beautiful country again to confirm!

[@100Saco-61]

@@marcbentley7839 ,you are very welcome whenever you decide to visit us. After so many years you'll be amazed by the changes you will find. Everything is much more modernised and tourist friendly (not sure if it's a good thing). We received 27 million tourists in 2019 (quit a lot to one country with 11 million inhabitants). Crowned, but more beautiful than ever. From that you just said about the smooth sausage i assume that it is similar to the ones used around the world to make hotdogs. Cachorro is the portuguese word for puppy. Lolol We use the german style sausage to make it.

Hi

[@torreslondon7541]

I have lived in Portugal for the best part of 20 years and I am married to a local. In my experience, whenever anyone orders a coffee they simply ask for a "café;" not that many people say "bica," even if certain types of Lisbonites do so. Asking for a "cafe" may seem vague but you will by default receive a 'bica' or what's referred to as an espresso internationally. If you want some extra water in that (so the liquid in your 'espresso' cup comes close to the brim) aks for "um café cheio" ("cheio" meaning "full"). If you would like a black americano-style coffee, ask for "cafe abatanado". For milk options, do as suggested in this lovely video, although - if you really like a milky coffee - ask for a "galão" (quarter of coffee and three quarters milk). Also, and referring to some of James' other great videos, you wont come across any torrefacto cofee in Portugal :-)

[@spainrevealed]

Thank you for that!!

[@silveriorebelo8495]

'café cheio' has more cafein, it's not simply a cup of coffe with 'more water'

[@tiagoguilherme3779]

I am lisboner and i order “bica” all the time.

[@brunomadeira8432]

You got it pretty well. There some regional names for the espresso (bica being more of a Lisbon name) but everywhere in Portugal, you ask for a "café" (coffee) you will get an expresso. Just one thing, "galão" (or "meia de leite" if you prefer a cup instead of a glass) isn't really measured, you take an espresso into the glass/cup and then fill it with milk.

[@davidcampelo]

Sorry! I'm a local...and I Always say bica!!! You can say we only yse rhe term in Lisbon, yeah, but it's still used...less and less, but still! ;)

[@karlomcastro]

I recently visited Lisbon and I made it a point to try some (actually most) of your recommendations! My God... they were some of the best food I've had. The grilled sardines & grilled bacalhau in O Gaiteiro were just simply amazing! The pasteis de nata in Manteigaria were great but to be honest, I did try many others and Manteigaria was my 3rd choice behind Pastelaria Santo Antonio in Alfama (top!) and Pasteis de Belem (the original). The piri-piri chicken in Bonjardim were to die for and I actually went twice as it was that good! I did try the ginjinha in Jinginha Sem Rival and it was quite good! Having bica in Confeitaria Nacional was very useful mid-day but it was more of the place & experience rather than the pastries. Unfortunately, I was not able to try the bifana in O Trevo as there were so many people queuing but I did try a bifana elsewhere and it was a good snack! Thank you for the awesome recos. We will surely join one of the Devour tours the next time we visit Madrid (& Barcelona)! Cheers!

I am writing this comment in March 2023. I just took the Lisbon Food Tour offered by Devour Tours and it was AMAZING! Our guide Gonzalo was great, took us to some of the places that are shown in this video. The big plus with taking this tour is that you don't have to wait in line to get in some of those places (since they are so popular) but also they have table waiting for the tour. Highly recommended. Lisbon is a wonderful gastronomical destination.

I been to Lisbon three times Porto three times too. Lisbon is my favorite city, yes even over Madrid which is my second favorite city. I was surprised you did not have Pastéis de Belém! You are eating history. It is my first food when I arrive in Lisbon and the last thing I have before depart Lisbon. My last visit to Lisbon I stayed in the Estrela District and found a small store that only sold take out Piri Piri Chicken. That was the only food they sold Piri Piri Chicken and only two sizes, whole chicken and half chicken. It was delicious and it a good sign if they only sell one thing, you know they have master cooking it.

[@brunomadeira8432]

That is quite common. Piri piri chicken or just "roast chicken" (as we call it) is a sort of traditional take out in Portugal, i'm not in the mood to cook anything. Any town has at least one of those. As a kid I knew that Sunday night was usually roast chicken so that my mother could get a break...

[@therasiathecook]

they went to the best place tpo have natas Manteigaria is sooooooo much betteer and they keep fresh the ones from Belem get stale once I get back home 2h away from lisbon XD Manteigaria is the way!!!!

[@acceleratum]

That is a very common type of shop, specially in the north, they sell the chicken ,sometimes pork ribs or sausages all in the grill over coal with french fries also common, they pack it in vegetable paper for take out and alot and of ppl grab one heading home after work, it's like the portguese version of fast food.

[@crpth1]

William C Bert - Yep! I guess you got it right. Those "specialized" stores are all over the place in Portugal. Piri piri chicken being the staple product but other grilled "stuff" can sometimes be found. It's a very Portuguese thing. Nowadays even in South Africa with Nando's. BTW Nando is short for Fernando.

[@bluezauza]

I would like to add that Ginginha is more than medicine ;) It is a social moment, often after work people would gather there outside the small shops to drink a shot and chat with coworkers about the day or politics or anything really, when I was younger it was always fun to go there and just listen to the older men discussing life and the most recent scandal on a politician or celebrity and often it was a meeting point, it used to be the favourite spot to meet with friends before a night out or before a date with someone. Now it is full of tourists , sadly , and locals are being driven away from our city center, our traditions and culture. Lisbon was a very old city and often it looked very dilapidated or ruined but it was extremely rich in culture and ingrained traditions, now most of it is gone and most of what you see is for tourism. Like the Pasteis de Nata, every cafe had those and every cafe had their own secrets, so you had your favourite spots to go and eat them, now again, they are made in one or two ways, Pastéis de Belém, Manteigueira where they make thousands a day for tourists, and to be honest I don't like them. I prefer the traditional ones , that you can still find in a few untouched places, like Casa Chinesa, near Rossio, and where you can still find all the most traditional pastries in Lisbon. ( another café that will soon disappear to give way to another Hotel) . And like someone commented here, you did not try seafood and you do not know what you missed.

Good video. We were in Lisboa a few months ago and took a (different) food tour, with several of the same types of food, but nowhere nearly as much food, just small bites for the most part. I lived in the Azores for 5 years, as well. Interestingly, I have never heard of "bica". I just know that pretty much anywhere in Europe (I live in Germany) if I order a cafe, I am getting what Americans call espresso. And if I want a "latte" I order a galao. In the Azores, the typical breakfast was a galao and either a ham sandwich or ham and cheese sandwich. Delicious. We loved the pasteis de nata at Mantegaria at Time Out Market! And our tour guide showed us a different way to get up the hillside other than H&M. I have to say, I'm glad we didn't have to walk all the way up the hill to get to the Café da Garagem!

[@Marzagao]

Thanks for visiting James and loved the episode in my city. Just a note for the Bacalhau which origins yes do date back from the 1500's but not because they were fished far away (Canada was only "discovered" by Europeans a few years before hmmm I believe), instead it was simply because it was the cheapest fish that was sent in the long expeditions that shipped from Lisbon. At that time the only way to preserve food was basically salting it. So they would stick the fish into wooden barrels full of salt.

[@spainrevealed]

Thank you for that!

Sebastião Brandão de Mello dude chill, no one said I didn’t ask locals for advice. Plus, if you are a local, why are you watching? Haha 🧐😊

[@sebastiaobrandaodemello4713]

I'm as chill as can be was just saying that if you want advice about the city you live in don't look for it on KZbin but just ask someone from here... I was curious about what they would consider secrets of Lisbon...

[@loverofawesomeness1]

I love mead!!! My favourate thing about my trip to Ireland and now that I know I can get it while it Lisbon, I've added Trobadores to our itinerary!

[@Chloe-id4jr]

You're videos are so helpful. They're getting me so excited for travelling 😁

[@minionanuta608]

Absolutely LOVED the video! Thank you, guys, I've added these places to my notes for when I visit Lisbon (hopefully soon! :))

[@aibandidos]

All you tourists reading this, in Lisbon an expresso is "bica" and a tap beer is "imperial". On the north side of the country an expresso is "um café, caralho" and a tap beer is "um fino, caralho". They're related.

Now, at the end. What a great tour. Funny, I dont like seafood but Portugal is the ONLY place I've ever been where its simply delicious and I liked it. Those Pasteis look soooooooo yummo!

[@longhornglfr1069]

Great video! Will be adding a couple of these to our itinerary for Portugal. Already created two tapas crawls from your videos (Retiro and Cava Baja) for our trip to Madrid. Keep up the good work.

[@spainrevealed]

Enjoy!

[@kylie-mareebaldwin4672]

I love all your tours. What an eclectic mix of food and drinks. Have you ever thrown up post tour?

[@spainrevealed]

Nope! ha ha

[@Christ-qk7or]

Aw man, I wish I saw this before I went to Lisbon! So many delicious places to try. Next time, for sure. Great vid. 👍

Thank you!!

awesome!

[@helenatome2649]

Hi James, I'm happy to learn that you loved Lisbon. Congrats on the video. Please note that Ginjinha is only 16% volume and not 23%. The 23% that you see on the wallboard is about having the tax included in the price charged. ;)

[@spainrevealed]

Thank you for that!

[@brandrunway]

:/

[@brandrunway]

:D So I need it double

[@crpth1]

No worries, after two or three Ginjinhas nobody will even notice there's VAT on that. LOL 😂

[@LuandaVINO]

Oh what a disappointment. We must organize, protest & change/reverse that; down w/ the TAX (16%) & up w/ the ALCOHOL (23%)!

[@antonionorato6900]

Fantastic video!!!👍

[@Neocoolzero]

Couldn't help but watch this when I saw it on youtube recomendations list, and why? Cause I live and work there :) It's always fun and interesting to see the side of soemone from the outside. That beeing side, please for the love of god, whenever you try and find a bifana, choose a place with homemade bread, cause that bread is horrendous, thats the usual industrialized manufactured bread we usually call "carcaça", and thats the cheapest of the cheapest of bread, it only tastes good cause its soaked in the meat sauce. Trust me, find a place with homemade bread, and the bifana will taste 100000x times better :)

[@spainrevealed]

Thank you!!! I would love a recommendation for such a place for next time - do please let me know.

[@johnsexton3841]

@@spainrevealed I can recommend one but it is about a 45 minute drive outside of Lisbon.

[@pymyriad]

@@johnsexton3841 What's the name of the place?

[@johnsexton3841]

@@pymyriad Daniel's near Landeira. It is a small converted container between two warehouses. Great veg soup and sublime bifana

Great job guys. Very informative. I'm checking out all the places you recommend.

Regarding the mead, my cousin is the main supplier of mead in Torbadores, he has a PHD and he is a professional beekeeper I'm proud to have that much mead at my disposal and a cousin dedicated to the honey based products.

[@tomandrews5707]

Hi, how much does the mead cost?

[@ThyHacker]

​@@tomandrews5707 if you buy directly from the store, the 500ml bottle of mead is 13€ and the lighter version that only has 5% vol. is 9€ per 750ml bottle but it can go down to 7.5€ if you buy them by the half-dozen.

[@Emy53]

I enjoyed this video. My goals are to spend at least 3 to 4 days in Portugal. My family's origins is Guamares. It's not mentioned much but there are other areas not far away that I want to visit. I have a beautiful friend in Portugal that hopefully will show me around. So exciting to plan my future travels with the help of James and Yoli. Thank you.

[@hayley2116]

I'm going to Lisbon next month and I am excited to try all these delicious foods and drink after watching this video :)

Thank you James and Alice, what a great tour of Lisbon eateries. There is no question I would go on your tours because it's clear how much you love what you do. I'm hungry now! Say Hi to Yoli for me.

[@wmp282]

Beautiful city 🇦🇺 🇵🇹

[@abelrs2812]

this is really good, i planned to go Lisbon on April6-9 and was looking where to find food and what to eat, and found your video 👍

[@tsname]

My family and I visited Lisbon and Porto just two weeks ago! So much fun! Another great place for pasteis de nata is Fabrica de Nata, they are tied for first place with Mantegaria: I love Fabrica's crust and I love Mantegaria's custard... Now if only I can get the best of both worlds here in Los Angeles! Of course, if you're in Porto, you have to try a Francesinha and I think the best place for it is a Brasao (they have a few locations in Porto). I wish this video was released three weeks ago so I could check out the different places you toured! Saude!

[@spainrevealed]

Saude, Aielo!

[@danielapinto3479]

Try cacau da Ribeira next time you're in lisbon. Great cakes and sweets

[@renemartell49]

I absolutely love Portugal. I hope to go back in the Spring. Travelled alone on two occasions and had a great time in Lisbon, the Algarve and north to Santiago de Compostello.

[@itsmeanne]

Oh Portugal, you have stolen my heart!!!!! ❤️

Oh I feel the love. Now you have to go cuz depression is sinking in
