Back to some great dinners in Porto at Restaurant Raiz https://www.raiz.com.pt/ Interesting building which looks quite narrow but goes over four floors. Sitting on the third floor at large open windows/doors gives you nice views and a cool breeze. Good dishes, especially the mains had some components which haven’t seen in too many restaurants during our trip before, e.g. quail, veal
National cheese & charcuterie board - portuguese assorted cheeses, iberian pork sausages, 10 months cured ham
Favas com chourico - portuguese broad beans stew, sausages, smoked ham, sous vide egg
