Lisbon in a Nutshell
For a classy meal surrounded by style, head to Café A Brasileira in the Chiado district. Known principally as being a favourite eatery of the poet Fernando Pessoa, and a meeting place for writers, journalists, intellectuals and artists since opening in 1905.
One of the most beautiful landmarks is Praça do Comércio, a square open to the River Tagus on one side and on the others surrounded by eighteenth century buildings designed in Pombaline style following the 1755 Lisbon Earthquake.
Lisbon’s palaces and castles are one of the hallmark features of this gorgeous city, from the fountains and statues of the Palácio dos Marqueses de Fronteira and Palace of Ajuda. The jewel in Lisbon’s crown however is the Pena National Palace, with brightly-painted facades and towering spires it looks like something out of a Disney film, and it’s no wonder it was named one of the Seven Wonders Of Portugal, as well as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Tastes To Try
A popular snack of the Lisboans is iscas com elas – pieces of fried liver served with sautéed potatoes, or alternatively bifanas, which are small pork steaks served in a roll. Often these traditional street foods are served at large parties or at beer halls in the manner of burgers or hot dogs, but you can also find them on stalls across the city to sate your hunger while you’re out and about.
For a titillating tipple, try medronho – a sugary liqueur made with the fruit of the strawberry tree. Also known as ‘firewater’, this bold brandy will certainly wake you up, but it can be difficult to get hold of due to not being commercially produced, it’s instead only made by small-scale local farmers.
Fancy some naughty natas? This iconic Portuguese dessert has been made popular worldwide by its inclusion on the Nando’s menu, but it has its origins in the Lisbon suburb of Belem, where these custard tarts are so delectable they’ve almost developed a cult following.
After Dark Destinations
Lisbon boasts a highly diverse and lively nightlife, and this is showcased on Rua da Atalaia in the south of the city, where bars, clubs and restaurants are plentiful.
Every September Lisbon hosts the ‘Queer Lisboa - Lisbon Gay & Lesbian Film Festival’, causing the city to become a hub of life and merriment for a week. The nightlife of the city booms into huge proportions during this week. The best places to experience this are the Kremlin and the Music Box, both located in the Bairro Alto District of the city – the heart of the city’s nightlife.
For a slower-paced evening of social chatter and relaxation, head to Cinco – a New York style bar at the heart of Lisbon which serves a delectable range of fruity cocktails and rich wines in a truly sophisticated setting.
