Good food is
good mood.
The typical food from this area of Ericeira is seafood and fish!
Fresh out of the ocean, these two ingredients are always very present in Portuguese cuisine. In fact, locals usually eat fresh seafood with a little bit of lemon juice and no side dish. Serving as appetizers or tapas on sunny days, seafood can also be cooked in an elegant and tastefully manner.
Clams, oysters, mussels, lobster, squid, plethora and good old classic shrimps are the main species you can find at any Portuguese “Marisqueira”, and once you know the basics for seafood cuisine in Portugal, you can adventure on your own creations!
