MATOSINHOS, PORTUGAL - Some say that Portugal has the best seafood in the world and today we’re going to find out why. With pristine cold water Atlantic ocean spanning the west and south coasts, Portugal is a seafood paradise. Today we’re eating our way through Matosinhos, a port and fishing town just outside of Porto.
Huge thank you to Taste Porto () for taking me on this incredible tour - they are the best! Thank you André Apolinário and Ricardo Brochado, it was amazing to hang out with them. Check them out for incredible food tours in Porto.
Mercado Municipal de Matosinhos - The local market is one of the best places to begin your seafood tour. The market is clean and organized and home to extremely fresh seafood of the day. You can also get all sorts of vegetables and fruits while you’re at it.
Restaurante Tito 2 () - Andre arranged for us to go to one of his favorite seafood restaurants in Matosinhos. Here you can choose the fish you want, and they will grill it, or prepare just the way you want it. The Rodovalho Grelhado - Grilled Turbot was fantastic, as was the Lulas - Grilled Squid, and the Pargo Grelhado - Grilled Porgi.
Restaurante Os LusÃadas () - But the highlight of this Portugal seafood tour was Restaurante Os LusÃadas, an upper scale seafood restaurant that serves the absolute best and freshest seafood you can imagine. It was indeed among the best quality seafood I’ve had in my life. We had Amêijoas à Bolhão Pato - Clams Portuguese Style, a huge seafood cocktail platter for 4, Arroz de lavagante - Lobster Rice, and Robalo ao sal - Sea Bass Salt Flambée!
If you love seafood, Matosinhos is a place you have to visit when you’re in Portugal!
Thank you again to André and Ricardo from Taste Porto ()!
