Knorr/Maggi. A lot of restaurants love it and they put on everything, even soup. It might have chicken broth and it might have chouriço on the pot. Even if people order without chouriço, doesn't mean is chouriço free. Some restaurants do that, some restaurants don't do that. I have seen it.

Portuguese soup, does not have chicken stock as a base unless it chicken soup(canja). Water and Ollive oil is the bases of our soup. Check-in authentic portuguese recipes for this.

Esactamente , isto è completamente errado. Como em muitas gastronomias nós usamos muitas vezes caldo de carne ou galinha, ou vegetais. Principalmente uma sopa entulho, da pedra etc fortes são muito melhores com um bom caldo ao invés de água. Se não se usam é preguiça, mas o dadinho usam todos. Uma especie de vergonha e mistério sempre a volta o cubo mágico.

The wine "chouriço" is really made with wine. And dis you know that indian "vindaloo" is an adaptation of a Portuguese dish, "carne (meat, once again) em vinha de alhos", that is, marinated in red wine and garlic, and a few other condiments and herbs?
Well done! But you missed Pernil (Pur-neel) Sandwich in casa Guedes, Praça dos Poveiros. Also, in the same place, Queijo (Kay-ju) da Serra Sandwich. Best bifana is in front of Campanhã train station in a place called Astro. If you are short on money you can ask for just a sauce sandwich. In Porto you must also try Filetes de Polvo (octopus) in a restaurant called Aleixo with the octopus rice, also near Campanhã and, last, but not the least: tripes... Ando go to Mercearia das Flores in rua das Flores to take a look (and taste) at Portugal's best produces. Enjoy

Vegetarians should try Peixinhos da horta; Grilled Mushroomns; Migas j(ust bread and veggies but it's really good!) Arroz de grelos (rice with cabbage sprouts )( you'll Love it), Turnip soup in Winter; cucumber and tomato salad; Roast peppers (delicious); .... Caldo Verde soup ONLY TAKES VEGETABLES!

It's a pity that you aren't seafood fans - one of the best traditional places I could recommend is Casa do Pescador, in Afurada, Vila Nova de Gaia. Hearty, home cooking and as traditional as it gets. The barnacles, the octopus, the seafood rice, and the fresh fish dishes are just amazing - all of them
