Treasure of Civilization

At the westernmost tip of the European continent, Portugal has woven a unique culinary landscape with its seven hundred years of maritime epics and maritime civilization. From the gifts of the Atlantic Ocean to the rich products of the Iberian Peninsula, from the Moorish spice legend to the flavor fusion of the colonial era, this land has refined the sun, sea breeze and diverse cultures into art on the tip of the tongue.
Whether it is the seafood market at the Lisbon dock or the winery dinner in the Douro Valley, every dish carries the Portuguese's love for life and awe of nature.
