Isolation has long demanded resourcefulness in the Azores. Across these far-flung Atlantic islands, generations of farmers, fisherfolk and winemakers have transformed maritime trade, local know-how and fertile, volcanic landscapes into one of Europe’s most distinctive food cultures.

Travelling through Portugal is also about discovering a cuisine full of flavours, traditions and moments of togetherness. In the summer, the tables are filled with snacks for you to enjoy at your leisure, such as octopus salad, seafood à Bulhão Pato, pica-pau (a type of beef stew), fried cuttlefish and traditional snails, served with toasted bread and butter.

And because the Portuguese summer is spent by the sea, there's a sound that's synonymous with holidays: “Olha a bolinha!” When you’re not in the water, be sure to try the famous Bola de Berlim (Berliners) or the fritters that are a staple of popular festivals.

It's not just about discovering new flavours; it's an invitation to experience one of Portugal's most authentic traditions: sharing a meal together.
