We begin your tour with a savoury start on the city's liveliest pedestrian street. Here, we visit a historic local coffee house to dive into Porto's traditional savory culture, tasting a perfectly crispy, golden 'Rissol de Vitela' (savory veal patty) fresh out of the fryer.
Mercado do Bolhao

Next, immerse yourselves in the bustling energy of the city's iconic covered market. While exploring the vibrant local stalls, we will pause for a premium culinary break, enjoying a curated selection of regional Portuguese cheeses paired beautifully with a glass of fine local wine. To top off your market experience, we will treat your sweet tooth to a traditional shot of sweet Portuguese Ginjinha liqueur served in a chocolate cup.
Sao Bento Railway Station

You make your way down to Porto's world-famous tile train station. Surrounded by the magnificent historic azulejos, we will wrap up your savory journey with a classic local bite to fuel us up before your hands-on workshop. From here, it is just a short, unhurried walk to your creative kitchen destination.
