I"ve scoped out a few possible places: Solar dos Presuntos, Sabor a Lisboa, and O'Faia. I like Dennis's approach to finding places to eat, but for a short stay like this, I prefer a plan. I'm thinking we'll look in the Baixa, as it seems centrality located, fairly flat, and we can take cabs to anything more than a 2 kilometer walk. Now, for our two nights in Lisbon at the beginning of our trip:ĭennis asked where we'll be staying. We'll be able to walk to the terminal in the morning. On that last night, I know we may be in the mood for a dinner, but then we'll want to crash into bed and wake up early for our flight. We will have already spent 2 nights (3 days) in Lisbon at the beginning of our trip. This will be at the end of a two week trip, arriving in Lisbon at 8 pm, following a long day in Marseille. ![]() Just to get it out of the way, we are only staying at the airport (Melia Hotel) the night before we get our morning flight home to Boston. There are other similar seafood places, that might be worth a look.Īgain, thanks for all the suggestions and questions! I am always leery of great restaurants that get hit with a deluge of fan-boy customers after a TV show, seems they become an expensive "meh" experience. Reports seem to be up and down whether they have suffered in quality and service since their "discovery", maybe with the pandemic things have settled down. Anthony Bourdain ate there, as well as a couple other TV chefs, we looked at going there, but with the crowds and lines it seemed more trouble than we wanted. Maybe the famous (infamous?) recommendation for foodies is Ramiro, a seafood place. ![]() Several top chefs from Portugal maintain outposts there, so you can find some neat dishes. They have several markets worth a look the Mercado da Rabeira is near central Lisbon with half of it taken up by the Time Out Market, a big food hall with stalls serving all kinds styles and types of food and drink. One happened to have a number of specials, including a Lamprey dish, tried it, it was good, not sure though I would go out of my way to get it again, but worth the experience. I wish I could remember exact names, but in our wanderings we looked at menus and the place, noting it for trying later. So no need to go out of your way to stay by the airport, stay in central Lisbon.Īside from that, for food, we randomly hit a few places right in the heart of Lisbon with pleasant results. I will comment first about your last night, for Lisbon, the airport is almost within the city, maybe a 10-20 minute ride from central Lisbon, taxis are cheap, Uber cheaper, seriously we paid like 10 to 15 euro.
