⭐ About Travel Beans:
Welcome to the official Travel Beans YouTube channel! On this channel, you’ll find a variety of travel and vlog content, in which you’ll see us in places like Thailand, Japan, USA, Slovenia, and more.

In 2017 we left home with just £500 in our bank account and a dream to make a sustainable travel lifestyle happen! We are now living our dream as digital nomads and want to inspire you to create your own story, whatever it may be!

After 5 years of aimless, yet enjoyable, backpacking around the world we found ourselves in New York City battling with depression. At this point, we decided to go home and confront this problem head-on. After 6 tough months at home we decided to go away again, but this time with a goal in mind.. to turn travel into a lifestyle.

Our time spent battling depression has influenced our outlook on life dramatically! We are now traveling the world in search of what makes us happy. In our vlogs, we talk openly and honestly about our travel experiences, the digital nomad life and depression. We hope our videos can help to inspire you to create a life that makes you happy!

Portuguese soup, does not have chicken stock as a base unless it chicken soup(canja). Water and Ollive oil is the bases of our soup. Check-in authentic portuguese recipes for this.

For any vegans out there: there are plenty of great vegetarian/vegan restaurants in Porto. You won't starve!

[patricianeiva]

That caldo verde can’t have chicken broth. That’s a blasphemy!

[paulavitoria]

The wine "chouriço" is really made with wine. And dis you know that indian "vindaloo" is an adaptation of a Portuguese dish, "carne (meat, once again) em vinha de alhos", that is, marinated in red wine and garlic, and a few other condiments and herbs?

[rodrigoduarte]

I'm Portuguese and that's actually the first time I saw a prego with cheese and ham
Also you should try "Cozido à portuguesa"

[ruialmeida]

It's a pity that you aren't seafood fans - one of the best traditional places I could recommend is Casa do Pescador, in Afurada, Vila Nova de Gaia. Hearty, home cooking and as traditional as it gets. The barnacles, the octopus, the seafood rice, and the fresh fish dishes are just amazing - all of them

[eacreal]

Well done! But you missed Pernil (Pur-neel) Sandwich in casa Guedes, Praça dos Poveiros. Also, in the same place, Queijo (Kay-ju) da Serra Sandwich. Best bifana is in front of Campanhã train station in a place called Astro. If you are short on money you can ask for just a sauce sandwich.
In Porto you must also try Filetes de Polvo (octopus) in a restaurant called Aleixo with the octopus rice, also near Campanhã and, last, but not the least: tripes...
Ando go to Mercearia das Flores in rua das Flores to take a look (and taste) at Portugal's best produces.
Enjoy

Finally a good video about Portuguese cuisine, in Portugal 🇵🇹🇪🇺👍

My cousin once brought over a date to my Grandmother's place for dinner. They mentioned to her he was vegetarian.

My Grandmother responded " vegetarian? I though he was Canadian"

So Yes its fair to say, vegetarian dishes are not very traditional in Portugal. lol

[Mia]

Vegetarians should try Peixinhos da horta; Grilled Mushroomns; Migas j(ust bread and veggies but it's really good!)
Arroz de grelos (rice with cabbage sprouts )( you'll Love it), Turnip soup in Winter; cucumber and tomato salad; Roast peppers (delicious); .... Caldo Verde soup ONLY TAKES VEGETABLES! No chicken Broth. The taste is from the cabbage which is a special cabbage just for that soup

Faltou: feijoada à transmontana, cozido à portuguesa, caldeirada, camarão à guilho, sardinha assada, carapaus na brasa, carapaus de escabeche, leitão da Bairrada, choquinhos à algarvia, tripas à moda do Porto... abraço

[tomasseverino]

You should have tried "peixinhos da horta". Extremely traditional and vegetarian. Inspiration for Tempura.

[aussiequest]

I'm sitting here drinking coffee, now I wish I was there eating some of that food with you. Great video guys.

[manuelbraga]

[colin]

Loved the look of the pork sandwich and the hot dog, makes me feel hungry watching these videos !!

[Dutchbelg]

All the food on show look proper yummie! What I love is the chorizo sausage cooked over the aguardente liquor ! So delicious! And (as I do love fish and seafood) Cataplana ! I love the portuguese food! So it's official? You both fell in love with (Northern-) Porugal? Did you see Guimaraes? Or Braga? I loved the 1 time I visited Portugal (and also stayed in the north) for a summer holiday. I did 2 x with work visit the Lisbon area and stayed in luxury hotels in Cascais and Estoril. Lisbon is beautiful too! I love Portugal more than Spain ..

[davidabreu]

Portuguese food is the best food in the world, it may be clichê this being said by a portuguese but its the true, what a country, what an history, love my country 🇵🇹
