The Portuguese diet consists of fish, beef, pork, lamb and chicken. The Portuguese cuisine is renowned the world over for its full, rich flavours and, thanks to the country’s fishing heritage, Portugal’s most popular dishes include bacalhau (dried cod), grilled sardines and caldeirada.
From Irish pubs to traditional, family-run tascas where you’ll be able to sample culinary delights that are specific to the region, such as the superb cataplana (steamed shellfish), the restaurants of Albufeira offer something to suit everyone’s taste.
And don’t forget to try a francesinha (grilled sarnie with cheese, meat and tomato sauce) and wash it down with one of the country’s biggest exports - wine.
