Who is It For?For anyone looking for a famous chef’s view Lisbon’s famous foods, recipes and local food scene. This rich history continues to be reflected in Portuguese cuisine. Fish is one of its stars. The fish chapter in this cookbook boasts around two dozen recipes showcasing salt cod, as well as dishes with hake, tuna, grouper, skate, eel, and more. (“Shellfish and Snails” get their own chapter.) Chapters on meat are robust enough to be separated by type: “Poultry and Game”; “Pork”; “Beef and Veal”; “Mutton, Lamb, and Goat”; and so on. The sections on sweets toward the end of the book are a reminder that the Portuguese make some of the best. Here, classics like pastéis de nata, or eggy custard tarts, sit side by side with surprising entries like “Milk Liqueur,” which is popular at the holidays, and a wedding cake from Alentejo called “Rancid Lard” (the ingredient, fortunately, does not appear). My Lisbon also includes the chef’s favorite dining spots. If you are traveling to Portugal, visit his newest restaurant BAHR, in the Bairro Alto Hotel in Lisbon.
