Gastronomy
Lisbon offers numerous places where you can enjoy gastronomic specialities, from the most luxurious with contemporary cuisine, famous chefs and fusion cuisine to the characteristic tavern district, to the small restaurant where the intense smell of spices transports you to faraway places.
Sip a coffee or sit on a terrace and indulge in our pastries, which feature the famous Belém cake or cream buns, and drinking a pico is an act of worship in Lisbon. Drinking a ginjinha, with or without them, or enjoying a pirate in typical Baja speciality houses is an indispensable ritual for many Alfacinhas.
