A great food festival in the middle of the biggest park: Festival Comida Continente (1. July 2017)
What a lucky coincidence – while I was in Porto the “Festival Comida Continente” took place which is basically a food festival with a lot of different food stalls. It is located in one biggest parks in Porto … … and there are food stalls where apparently famous chefs are cooking. The concept is rather […]
Touristic place with a funny waiter: Restaurant Imar (30. June 2017)
Porto is built on both sides of the Duoro river and while the old town is on one side all the port producers are on the other side of the river. Secondly, there are a lot of restaurants for tourists – and well, I ended up in one of them as it didnt’t look too […]
Definitely one of the better lounge offerings: Sheraton Club Lounge @ Sheraton Porto (30. June 2017)
The Sheraton Club Lounge in the Sheraton Porto is nothing outstanding in terms of interior design and decoration but what I was extremely positively surprised by was the food they served for dinner. Not only because it was quite exceptional for lounge food in terms of variety and quality but also because they changed the […]
22. June 2014: Executive Club Lounge @ Sheraton Porto
The Executive Club Lounge at the Sheraton Porto is kind of disappointing – at least when it comes to the afternoon offering they have. The selection of dishes in the afternoon is absolutely too small. They offer some different kinds of spreads, different kinds of breads, and some sweet and salty snacks but that is […]
21. June 2014: Clérigos Vinhos & Petiscos Bar
The Clérigos Vinhos & Petiscos Bar is generally speaking a nice place as I was attracted by it by the pure looks when walking by. And it is actually quite nice (also on the inside) but frankly speaking the service is a no go. I waited for a solid 20 minutes before someone approached the […]
21. June 2014: Restaurant O Paparico
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SERGIO! It is a bit more than two years ago since I have been at the Restaurant O Paparico (see here) and I was already incredibly loving the place back then and still recommend it to everyone who asks me for recommendations when going to Porto. And now, that I was […]
21. June 2014: Restaurant Presuntaria Transmontana
It is a bit more than two years ago since I have last been at the Restaurant Presuntaria Transmontana (see here). And I must say the place is not as atmospheric if you have to stay inside (as the weather was not entirely to my liking). The moment you sit down, you are already presented […]
29. April 2012: Restaurant Brasa dos Leões
The place was recommend by our host and we walked up to it and it looked pretty shabby but it was full, so we decided to give it a shot and waited 20 minutes outside until a table got free. As a starter from the kitchen we got some kind of sausages they were tasty […]
