"Incredible experience! It was so cool to see restaurants that we no way would have seen without a guide. The underground church restaurant was the coolest experience we had in the city and the custard tart was the most delicious I’ve ever eaten.

A delightful small tour in February with a charming host We had a great time with Gabi and Eating Europe while in Lisbon. He was very genuine and knew both his food stuff and his local history stuff, front to back. The tour walking was not difficult and the quantity and quality of food was enough to be considered a full meal. Go in the off season if you can and you might get a private tour like we did!

Do this tour first in Lisbon A terrific tour from Eating Europe. Fred was an excellent tour guide, and I, especially like the way he combines extensive knowledge of history, and the food of the area. So it’s a terrific mix of learning and eating and enjoying the city.This would be a great tour to do early in your Lisbon visit because you’ll find a couple places you want to revisit for a full meal.

Sara
Originally from Porto, living in Lisbon since 2016.
Favorite dish will have to be a good Duck Rice (Arroz de Pato)
Although Lisbon is beautiful inside and out always look for the open doors in the buildings, you might find some of the most amazing undiscovered monuments.
Kriszti
Hungarian native who fell in love with Portugal in 2006 and made it her home.
My favourite Portuguese dish would have to be grilled sea bass with an ocean view and a nice green wine.
If you are a coffee drinker always order a regular “café” and not a milky version to really appreciate this underrated delicacy!
Gabriel
Brazilian living in Lisbon for 6 years who fell in love with the city after a trip and never left.
My favorite dish is Polvo a lagareiro!
When in Lisbon, don't miss Graça with its viewpoints and terraces and a sunset boat trip on the Tejo River
Catarina
Born in "a garden planted by the sea" also known as Portugal.
What I love about Portuguese cuisine is the freshness of the ingredients which change every season. My favorite summer food is grilled sardines with salad.
The best way to learn about a country is through its people. Go to a farmers market, talk to strangers and experience the variety of local vegetables and fruits.
Eduardo
Born and raised in Portugal. From the mountain of Sintra right to your table!
My favorite thing to eat is rotisserie chicken. Simple but hard to beat.
The best advice I've ever been given for Lisbon is "Look for handwritten menus. Even better if they're written on a disposable paper towel''!
Fred
Born and raised in Lisbon, a true "Alfacinha"
My favorite Portuguese dish is a Bitoque: steak with a fried egg served on top with a side of french fries and rice
When in Lisbon, explore Alfama, Belém and Sintra as well as indulging in our lovely food
Camila
Born in Brazil and living in Portugal since 2001
My favorite food is grilled octopus!
Walk and eat as much as possible in Portugal. There's always some story behind each building and dish!
