It is a round beef pie (encased in a flaky puff pastry) that originated in Braga. This place is the oldest cafe that sells them (since 1796). Even more fascinating is that if you look down at the floor, there are clear tiles showing ancient ruins underneath. Such a neat little place. We ordered the iconic frigideira. It was warmed up and wrapped in paper neatly. The pie had lattice lines across the top.

The restaurant is said to have been serving them since 1796! The standard frigideira consists of a pastry shell with minced meat. Other varieties are available. I ordered a Frigideira mista, one with cheese and ham added. It made for a perfect lunch! The restaurant also serves other Portuguese dishes. The ruins of a Roman house discovered under the restaurant can be seen through glass in the floor. Definitely recommended when visiting Braga.
