Porto is an unbelievable city for food, and this food tour was something that we've been so excited to do. Check it out!
We started the day off like every other vlog except rather than focusing on coffee shop itself, we’re more interested in the kind of coffee we were getting. We got Galão, which is essentially a large glass of milk with an espresso shot in it. It’s quite a long coffee, so it’s good to get with something a bit savory like a cake. In our case we got probably the most famous dessert in Porto, the Pastel de Nata. This is an egg custard tart pastry. You’re going to notice throughout a lot of this vlog that we’re really leaning into the desserts as much as anything else because Portugal has some really fantastic dessert options to choose from.
Now I’m going to go ahead and admit that the second stop isn’t technically Porto-specific or even Portuguese-specific, but we love a good brunch and you’ll be hard pressed to find a spot better than Zenith Bruch & Cocktails. We loved what we saw online of this place so I figured we'd add it to the experience since this place has great looking smoothie bowls, whereas just about everything else that was on the agenda was…not as healthy.
As we said earlier, a fair amount of what we got wasn't very healthy and that includes the next stop LOL. We’re headed to Pastelaria e Confeitaria Moura. This is a family run bakery that’s been around for over 120 years. We went to hunt down their Jesuitas. These are light, puffy pastries that jumped off the screen to me when researching things to try. I also read that a good way to eat it is to pull them apart and place the sugar layer face down on the other half to make a ‘sugar sandwich’.
Next we decided to deviate from the sweets for a moment. We went to a place called Taxca to try their famous Cured Pork Sandwich & enjoy it with a glass of Espadal. They’ve been serving these sandwiches since 1965 & it’s a major staple for the people in Porto. If you’re wondering what Espadal is, it’s a sparking rosé wine. This is on a ton of food tour itineraries for Porto online so apologies for taking the idea to anyone watching this that operates those here in town. I couldn’t leave this out!!
Next we changed clothes and went to find a happy hour. Although I was unsuccessful in this endeavor, we were able to find some Port Wine and it was delicious!
Dinner was were things got a little wild and eccentric for us. We tried to eat dinner at a place called Escondidinho do Barredo, which translates (on google that is) to Mud Hideout. I found that absolutely hilarious and promptly added it to the list. We went to try three delicacies here in Porto and these delicacies were codfish balls, sardines, & octopus. Unfortunately though when we arrived, they were randomly closed. Restaurants in Europe really have a tendency of opening and closing when they want LOL. Although we faced a bit of adversity in finding a restaurant, thankfully we made it to a place right on the Douro River that had all three! Also, our new friend Megan got the Francesinha which put the perfect cherry on top of an incredible dinnner!
We couldn’t end on sardines & octopus, Hannah would’ve never forgiven me. I also didn’t want that to be the last memory of our time in Porto SO, we ventured way off the Portuguese menu and head to a really cool Gelato shop that’s open late & had a great variety of flavors. We’d have loved to stop in one of the Confeitaria’s again but they all close at 8. However we’ve found that in Europe when everything else is closed, the gelato place is open. We really just didn’t want to go home without having a little bit more sweets.
Thank you so much for tuning in! Our next vlog will be exploring Lisbon so stay tuned for that in the coming days. See you soon!!!

Yum.... just yum! 😋
We definitely ate way too much throughout the day but IT. WAS. WORTH. IT. This place really knows how to enjoy eating!!!🤣
Just got back from Portugal. Thanks, your video was quite useful and I tasted many of the same foods!
We're so glad to hear that John!!!! We loved it too. Portuguese people sure know how to eat well!!l🤣 Thank you so much for taking the time to watch our videos!!!:)
Found you yesterday & subscribed youtube is horeible with the algorithm but this is such an enjoyable video thank you for allowing us to travel with you
Thank you so much Justin!! We're thrilled to have you along on this ride!!!!!
Watching this video is making me hungry. bon appetite 😀
LOVE IT🤣 We're still talking often about those pork sandwiches from Taxca. They were A DREAM!
This looks like so much fun!!! (Except for that sardine) :)
IT WAS A BLAST!!! The Sardines weren't THAT bad though. Just a bit too salty for Hannah🤣
Nice job guys, we are here. Now.
That's awesome, enjoy it!!! And have some Pastel De Nata for us😍😍
My husband is Brazilian so I make pastéis de bacalhau every Christmas. Brazil is a former Portuguese colony so a lot of their food is Portuguese.
Those are INCREDIBLE treats!! We talk all the time about how much we miss getting them since we're currently in Asia. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch our video Katie!!:)
I'm super jealous! I'm having McDonald's for lunch. And I'm watching y'all eating all kinds of good stuff! Also Trey I like the probably lost shirt! I also think its funny how you always hear car horns in big cities and I can literally go months where I live, and maybe hear a car horn a couple times. Keep up the great videos!
Hey McDonald's is one of Trey's favorite meals!!! Admittedly we're pretty obsessed with their fries😂 Thank you for the kind words on this! He got the shirt from my (Hannah) brother for Christmas and he wears it ALL THE TIME!! If you haven't noticed he also LOVES him some black shirts. He has a favorite shirt from Target and when we went back to the States last week he bought four more of the same one🤣
@@ProbablyLost I love there fries too! I've never noticed that shirt? Lol your welcome y'all are my favorite. When is the Q&A video coming out?
@@ericwardlaw2355 You're too kind!!! It should be coming out next weekend I believe! We have a Lisbon vlog tomorrow, and then a traveling to the US. We filmed while we were in Michigan with Hannah's family. It's right around the corner!😊
You can eat most of the bones (outside of the head & spine) in a sardine as they are soft enough. Glad you had a good time in Porto.
Okay perfect!!! We weren't totally sure just how to go about navigating the bones lol. The food in Porto is SO good though. We can't wait to go back!! Thanks so much for watching our video Liane!!!
I love my portuguese neighbours ! Saludos from Spain!
If there's one thing we've learned in the five months we've been traveling, it's that people on the Iberian Peninsula KNOW GOOD FOOD!! There's some pretty incredible food all throughout Spain & Portugal. We love it!!!
Os queremos mucho tambien!
@@pedrodionisio8789 Queremos ???
@@carlossantos-fz7xo alguém falou consigo?
You guys did it again! I have not had anything to eat all day and then I saw you just posted another video and let me tell you ... I am starving right now! I am so hungry I could eat a horse, starting with the horns. Love that place and will definitely visit some day, one thing for sure, y'all can eat whatever you want because you walk it off, after eating supper I am climbing the mountain behind our house here otherwise I will need a new wardrobe! As always, looking forward to your next video.
A mountain behind your house??? That sounds incredible!!! We definitely do A TON of walking on days that we film so it makes it easier for us to justify ordering all the crazy things we get🤣 Thank you so much for tuning in and being such an amazing supporter for us!!!
Where is Tasca located?
Hi Ed!! It's on Rua da Picaria near the center of Porto. Search 'Taxca' on Google Maps and it should pull up for you. Thanks so much for watching our vlog!!
After go eat at Lisbon, compare with Porto typical food…Prosit!
Oh we definitely did!!! The food in Lisbon was INCREDIBLE!!! Thank you so much for watching our video!!!
Oh man! Sardines do not taste anything like calamari and neither does the octopus. They’re all completely different. I think they all just tasted like fear to you guys.🥾😜
They were definitely different from what we're used to😂 I felt like the calamari and octopus were similar with regard to consistency. It's funny though that Hannah actually LOVED it. I (Trey) really thought she'd dislike the octopus. But that just goes to show that the people in Porto really know how to prepare great food!!
Lost me at describing cakes (like the Pasteis de Nata) as savoury. If you're going to do a food tour, know the difference between sweet and savoury!
Hi Steve!! We aren't food experts or anything even close, just a couple who are trying their best to explore new places & share them with people. Mistakes like that are bound to happen (and MAN do they happen more often than we'd like😅). Nonetheless, we hope you found some of the vlog enjoyable & really do appreciate you taking the time to watch some of it!!
