PORTUGAL - This is the official list of the 7 best Portuguese foods - these are the best foods you don’t want to miss eating when you’re in Portugal! No, whenever there’s a list, there’s bound to be some controversy, and many will say that certain dishes should have been on this list… but it was voted on by locals and this is the official list of food!
I traveled around Portugal to eat these 7 best Portuguese foods!
1. Sardinha Assada - Grilled Sardines
A Merendinha do Arco Bandeira, Lisbon, Portugal (maps.app.goo.gl/pvQvpCTH81Zn9geZ8) - Located right in the heart of Lisbon, this restaurant serves authentic and classic Portuguese foods. I came here specifically to try their grilled sardines. Now, just to let you know, unfortunately I wasn’t in Portugal during sardines season, and if you are, you’d find fresh sardines everywhere. But they were still good and this restaurant is a great place to try local Portuguese food.
2. Queijo Serra da Estrela - Portuguese soft sheep cheese
Manteigaria Silva, Time Out Market Lisboa (maps.app.goo.gl/AhsJgsfDgtCXe2iv7) - Famous for their cured meats and cheese, we next tried the legendary Queijo Serra da Estrela, a Portuguese sheep cheese from the mountains nearby Lisbon.

Nova Casa Dos Leitões, Aguim, Portugal (maps.app.goo.gl/oZkfY42uWnXfXzBL9) - Few foods in all of Portugal are more loved than Portuguese roast suckling pig. And to eat the best suckling pig you need to go to Mealhada!
6. Arroz de Marisco - Seafood Rice
O Jorge do Peixe, Quarteira, Portugal (maps.app.goo.gl/EqXjgrhhM9JpSkEu8) - Now we’re heading to the south of Portugal, seafood heaven. And one of the best Portuguese foods is arroz de marisco, seafood rice.
7. Pastel de Belém
Manteigaria, Lisbon, Portugal (maps.app.goo.gl/rHQep5y49TtK2n62A) - Probably the most famous of all Portuguese sweets is the egg tart, and the original is made in Belem, near to Lisbon.

As a Portuguese native, born and raised, I thank you for your visit and expect to see you soon. Always welcome. Best.

Nice of the manager to show up at the sardines and basically says "This how we do it". He knows if a customer struggles that can impact their enjoyment of the dish.

People of Portugal are so nice and friendly

Mark, I have to interrupt watching the video to express my gratitude for you always being so genteel on these videos. You express beautiful family values, even when stuffing your face so full it looks like you might choke. You are always gracious, polite, and thankful. That means a lot to us older folks who have old-fashioned values. It's obvious that your parents did an exemplary job of raising you. Thanks Mark.
