Cook Portugal's Forgotten Recipes in a Porto Home with Filipe

Join Filipe for an authentic Portuguese home-cooked meal in Porto, in a charming 1940s townhouse with a private garden. This storytelling-driven dining experience explores Portugal’s rich culinary heritage, from its Islamic influences and the Age of Discoveries to the revival of royal recipes from the 16th and 17th centuries. Your meal begins with alheira, often known as the "secret Jewish sausage,". Next comes pataniscas de bacalhau (traditional codfish fritters). The main courses celebrate both traditional Portuguese cuisine and historical culinary discoveries. You'll enjoy arroz carolino com favas e chouriço (carolino rice with broad beans and chouriço), followed by petingas em escabeche (marinated baby sardines). The experience concludes with a traditional Portuguese dessert, served in the warmth of a family home where tradition, memory, and connection come together around the table.

(Optional) Join chef Filipe in his home kitchen in the heart of Porto for a historical cooking experience centered on forgotten recipes. Learn to cook a traditional Portuguese appetizer or dessert alongside a main course in your 2-hour hands-on Porto cooking class.
