Food and drink

Some Portuguese cuisine has a lot of spice. The mouth-watering dishes have strong Mediterranean links and so too Moorish and Arab influences. Spicy Piri Piri sauce is simply delicious, the flavours are used to marinade meats particularly chicken, served with pitta bread and salad making it truly delicious. As Portugal is a seafaring nation one of the main specialities is of course fish, so you must try grilled sardines. The rich full flavours are so fresh and healthy, it is a perfect meal to satisfy your appetite.
