Nothing appeals more to the Portuguese soul than food does. There's something magical about gathering the family and friends around the table, enjoying the best food and tasting the most incredible wines, talking about ... food, while eating. Dreaming about dinner while having lunch. You must be a foodie to understand how the intricate Portuguese mind works.This is why we open the doors of Our Grocery, showcasing the finest products: the all-mighty codfish, ruling the Portuguese tables since immemorial times; the King of the Portugueses cheeses: Serra da Estrela cheese; the tastiest regional bread; the inescapable olive oil, the basis of Portuguese gastronomy; the handy preserved food that crosses borders and, last but not the least, the best Bairrada wines with the signature of Luís Pato, the senator of Portuguese wine-making and also an Instagram icon! All wrapped in the best food baskets produced by sustainable Quinta d'Arminho, an inspiring family-run project of regenerative agriculture. As well as the truly Portuguese chickens produced by Mrs. Elisabete Cortez Serra, near Coimbra. Or the lively fish markets, bursting with colour and joie de vivre!Life never tasted so good!
