In the canon of travel literature Portugal has often been overlooked as a gastronomic and cultural behemoth in comparison to its neighbour Spain, unjustly so in my opinion.
Of course, in the last decade Lisbon has become something of a mecca for hipsters and artists looking for a warmer and (sadly no longer) cheaper way of life and the pretty tiled-capital Porto has long been frequented by Port enthusiasts and then of course there’s the Algarve, that much favoured summer holiday location for British middle class families.
