Market Tour, Cooking Class And Lunch At Mercado de Arroios

About this experience

Sample typical Portuguese market products with a walk around the market. Once you've had your fill of the market, it's time for a walk back to your host's home to learn how to make traditional Portuguese dishes with the ingredients you bought, followed by dining on the dishes you create for lunch!

Antónia will be showing you how to cook each dish (you can also help her, if you like!) and will share the recipes afterward.

Her husband will accompany you throughout the whole experience by telling stories and tips about Portugal.
