Experiencing Portuguese Food

It will reach as no surprise that in a country with this much coastline, seafood dominates much of the culinary scene. Cod is certainly a favorite &#x; especially the bolinhos de bacalhau, or little balls of cod. Made by frying cod, potatoes, onions and parsley, these cod balls are super simple to find. If fried food isn&#x;t for you, look for the many fish and shellfish options cooked straight in the grill. This cooking style utilizes simple seasonings, allowing the seafood to be the star.

Cured meats meats and rich cheeses are also an important part of the culture. Finding places that offer charcuterie boards with wine pairings make for blissful afternoons. Portugal being the land of meat and fish can make things challenging for vegetarians and vegans alike. In most cases the Portugese come from the more meat the better&#x;&#x; camp. That&#x;s not to say it is impossible to travel there while vegan, just proceed into it knowing you&#x;ll have to plan ahead.

About Lisbon and its gay life

Since the s Lisbon (Lisboa) became one of the new steamy spots for travellers in Europe. It was European Capital of Culture in , in the World Expo was held in Lisbon and in the European Football Championship.

Vivid, small and steep historical streets, modernised areas, an extensive nightlife till early morning and a fresh breeze from the sea even in hot summers make Lisbon a pleasant place for relaxing, sightseeing and going out altogether.

Lisbon's gay scene also became very European. Especially in the Príncipe Real area and in the old Bairro Alto quarter you can detect a very visible gay life at night. In Bairro Alto it is pleasantly difficult to verb which bars are gay or gay-friendly or hetero-friendly or whatever.

Annual gay highlights and great events in Lisbon are the Bear Pride in May, the Marcha undertake Orgulho LGBTI and Arraial Lisboa Pride in June, the film festival Queer Lisboa in September and the huge technology conference Web Summit in November.

Gay Lisbon &#; the finest gay hotels, bars, clubs &#; more

Lisbon is a city born among seven hills. Brightly painted houses and red roof tiles shine in the ever-present sun with cobblestoned streets winding all around them—up, down, up again, and back down to where the city hugs the river below.

Rather than just the old meeting the new cliche, in Lisbon it's more like the old meets the novel and the anachronistic, as you'll find churches, cathedrals, and a castle, but also old-school trams clattering up the steeper parts of the hills, taking you to where quirky cafes and hipster bars are sequestered away in the labyrinth-like upper parts of the city. Portuguese culture is present everywhere you look in Lisbon through the abundance of the often-picturesque taverns called &#;tascas,&#; serving as both places to eat and meeting spots for the community, as well as cafes serving such delicacies as their famous custard tarts, Pastéis de Belém.

It's no Barcelona, but there's still plenty to act for sightseers, especially those who don't mind some uphill and downhill noun. Portugal is j
