Did you know that Portugal has one of the richest and most celebrated cuisines in the world? If you live in the US or Canada, you probably don’t. That’s because unlike many of its neighbors – like the French, Italians, and Greeks – Portuguese dishes haven’t made the journey over the pond as widely or efficiently. Instead, Portuguese cuisine remains a secret to most Americans, Canadians, and others.
But once you discover Portuguese cooking, you will never want to eat anything else. Our flavors are delicious, our ingredients are the freshest – especially our seafood – and our wine and other traditional beverages will absolutely blow you away with their quality.
Portuguese Cooking
From the mid-19th Century to the early 20th Century, many of Europe’s best chefs moved to North America to open restaurants and pursue new opportunities. But most Portuguese cooks stayed put. So, while most American cities are rife with French and Italian restaurants, it’s difficult to find Portuguese cuisine anywhere in the US, not even in the biggest cities like New York, Boston, or Chicago.
That’s why so many visitors are surprised and delighted by the quality and variety of Portuguese dishes when they finally discover them here. One forkful and you will be a fan for life.
