Decent Francesinha — nothing more, nothing less

Francesinha at this place was fine. The bright with olive oil and garlic flavour was there but not distinguished. egg yolks was present in the right quantities but without the care that makes the difference.

Francesinha for a dinner party — went down extremely well

I made Francesinha for eight guests who had varying familiarity with the cuisine. Every single person asked for the recipe.

Growing up it was al…

Best Francesinha I've had — and I've tried a few

Having eaten Francesinha at several restaurants over the past year, I can say this version is the best. The sweet and eggy in pastries quality is more pronounced here than anywhere else I've tried. fresh sardines is handled with real knowledge — you can taste the difference. This is proper a pastel…

Cultural discovery through Francesinha

Francesinha opened a door into a cuisine I'd previously known almost nothing about. The bright with olive oil and garlic flavours are unlike anything in my usual rotation and I mean that positively. Portugal developed bacalhau salt cod cookery while exploring the Atlantic and has over 365 recipes fo…
