All 10 Pork Dishes

Secretos de Porco Preto

Maçã Verde

Alfama·$

€18.50

Sliced black pig shoulder blade, simply grilled and served with potatoes.

Tip: Ask for it cooked pink in the middle — it's traditional and keeps the meat juicy. If you want it well-done, mention it, as the default is on the rare side.

Morcela

Tasca do Chico

Alfama·$$

€7.50

Blood sausage grilled and served as a tasca-style appetizer.

Tip: Try this alongside the chouriço for a full sausage experience — the two together are a classic tasca pairing.

Alentejo Pork Medallions

Senhor Vinho

Lapa·$$$$

€32.00

Tender pork medallions from the Alentejo region, seasoned simply and served with sautéed vegetables.

Tip: Don't order this well-done — the meat is too good to risk drying out. Request it cooked pink in the center.

Bifana

As Bifanas do Afonso

Baixa·$

€2.50

Pork braised in white wine, garlic, and bay leaf on a soft Portuguese roll.

Tip: The sauce soaks into the bread in the best way. Ask for napkins before you start — it's delicious and messy.

Belcanto

Chiado·$$$$

€85.00

Deconstructed suckling pig with ultra-crispy skin and delicate egg soufflé pillows.

Tip: Don't skip this course even if pork isn't normally your preference—the preparation here is revelatory and converts skeptics.

Cured Meat Croquettes with Clam Mayonnaise

Cavalariça

Baixa·$$$

Confit Suckling Piglet

Alma

Chiado·$$$$

€75.00

Slow-cooked suckling pig with turnip-top purée and crisp skin.

Tip: If you choose à la carte instead of the tasting menu, order this. It's the dish that made Alma's reputation and shows why Sá Pessoa earned two stars.

Pork Belly with Miso Glaze

Optimista

Cais do Sodré·$$

€14.00

Crispy-skinned pork belly finished with a glossy miso-soy glaze and scallions.

Canalha

Alcântara·$$$
