Lisbon food
Lisbon’s culinary scene embraces several cool concepts and sophisticated twists, including the street food scene and the food markets. One of the trendiest spots is the "Mercado da Ribeira" food court. Now, a hot spot for tourists, however, the locals have been using this market already since 1892. The original building was a top-quality place for buying fresh fruits, vegetables, and fish, while the historic building of today (in Cais do Sodré) combines traditional favorites with Michelin-star culinary delights in more than 30 food stalls. For a more local (and less crowded) experience, head to the "Mercado Campo de Ourique" where they sell a variety of traditional products, as well as artisanal Portuguese recipes.
