Our guide will meet you and guide you through the streets of Porto to our tasting points.
Start the journey in the iconic Rua de Santa Catarina, the beating heart of local commerce, where the vibrant energy of the city is felt at every step.
At the first stop, you'll taste sardine in a tapa with "Vinho Verde", at the historic Mercado do Bolhão. This market is a sensory delight, with a rich variety of colours, aromas, and flavours. Recently restored by architect Nuno Valentim, it combines traditional charm with modern functionality.
The second stop will be at a traditional grocery store, where you'll taste carefully selected cheeses and charcuterie, accompanied by wine.
The experience continues at a snacks house, where you can taste emblematic dishes such as "pataniscas", "moelas", "rojões", salad or "bacalhau à Brás" - choose your favourites and let yourself be carried away by tradition.
To end the day, there's nothing better than a ‘pastel de nata’ (custard tart), a gastronomic reference not only in our city but throughout Portugal, accompanied by a coffee.
We hope that at the end of the day, the local gastronomy is another reason to be in love with our city.
