Actually in Portugal we're not that much of seafood lovers 😅 There's the occasional sardine, tuna, shrimp and lobster but those things... Require WORK to eat them. You have to dodge the occasional bone and break carapace to get to the meat.... And the protein feel-full ratio is not that beneficial. Soooo yeah... Meat gets the throne. Seafood is light food you know... It's understandable that your girlfriend hasn't mentioned you this... We just don't think too much of it. This is like "Food tourism" in a way... They're looking for specific cultural things that the country has a specialty in it. For sure... You won't eat good seafood like this in other countries, that's GRANTED. If you want a "seafood rollercoaster"... Yup, Portugal is the place

I am Portuguese and lived in Spain for a long time before coming back. Although you are correct in both of them being underrated, I think they are very different cuisines. My feeling is that on high end cuisine the Spaniards have us beat since the times of El Bulli. They consistently have multiple restaurants in the top 10 or 20 of the world because their expert chefs are REALLY good and they have some incredible ingredients. But for day to day, traditional food the chance of you walking in a restaurant and feeling really happy with what you are eating is higher in Portugal, and my wife (who is russian) pointed out a good reason for it. See I (and a huge percentage of Portuguese including men) can cook 95% of what I eat in a Portuguese restaurant, of course not to the same level of expertise, but quite approximately, so when I go out and ask for something that I know I can eat, I have a clear reference of what things are supposed to taste like or feel, and that puts some pressure on the cooks to be better at what they do. I have travelled quite a bit and that experience of just walking in a random restaurant or tasca and always feeling welcomed and well served only happened to me in one other place, Italy.. Sorry for the long reply.

Gooseneck Barnacles are amazing. Easy to get here in Oregon, but we have a dumb limit of 10 per person on them. I kinda get it, but makes it hard to do a meal unless you get lots of people to forage them. Taste like crab to me, look like alien something you don't want to eat.

🦞🐟🦀🐙Thank you Mark for the episode 😀

Gooseneck barnacles are called percebes in Spain. People risk their lives at low tide to try and harvest them since they only reside on large rock outcroppings. I had them for the first time in Paris as part of a seafood tower. I have great respect for the harvesters of them since it's a risky diving endeavor, not unlike diving for abalone in Korea, which are done by very revered ladies who free dive without air tanks due to laws about harvesting abalone.

Best seafood in the world is in Italy and japan.

The dishes we´ve seen in this video, you can find in any seafood restaurant in Milan. See what they prepare in Sardegna, Toscana, Sicilia, Puglia, Liguria, riviera Adriatica...and so on.
