Francesinha, mhmmmm....
The
title doesn't sounds familiar for you? Don't worry, after this short
note you'll be able to recognize great taste of Portugal!
Last year, when I was in Porto, I had an occasion to try this traditional Portuguese dish. I was invited to a birthday party and I was served a huge piece of bread, with few tipes of meat and fries.
Absolutely amazing sandwich, very hard to eat it at once. Of course I didn't make it, so I asked for a box to take it away.
Besides of good food, Porto is famous from a very friendly, openminded and helpful people. Language is similar to spanish, but sometimes I had troubles to preciselly express what I mean. Every person I had occasion to speak with, treated me with calm and patience.
Even though it was April, water in the ocean was calm enough to swim. Urban beach is very wide and clean. That was a pleasure to eat lunch on a sand with a sip of my favourite, light wine - Sangria.
So when you ask about the things that cames to my mind related with Portugal, I will say: Francesinha, sun and Sangria!
