Who we are
We live in Porto and we’ve spent years eating our way through it — long lunches, tiny tascas, wine bars and the neighbourhood places that feel like home.
We don’t take money from restaurants and we never add a place we don’t truly enjoy. Every spot in this guide is somewhere we’ve visited, loved and returned to — often many times.
This is simply us sharing the Porto we know and love.
