What. A. Find!…read more Padoca is an awesome spot for vegan breakfast, brunch, lunch, lanche, or dinner (early dinner some nights). Not only are the people working there sweet but the food is great too. We stopped in for a weekday brunch and were googley-eyed over the pasty case full of vegan pasteis de nata, croissants, donuts, and other delectable pastries. They have a full menu of torradas, sandwiches, burgers, wraps, franceschina, and more, as well as a build-your-own waffle and crepe station. All plant-based! They also of course have coffee, beer and drinks. We tried a fried mushroom wrap (best dish on the table!!), a seitan and vegan cheese torrada (toasted sandwich), and a seitan and green chili pastry. All were super delicious. But the wrap really blew us away. Crispy fried mushrooms, greens, carrots, fried onions, and mayo inside a soft (crepe? Tortilla?) that was grilled. Served with herbed potato chips. We both had that eyes-rolling-back-in-our-heads expression while chowing down on it. Strong recommend on this dish. Some items aren't available until late morning or noon, like burgers and sandwiches. Yay for super delicious vegan Portuguese food!

The food here is incredible. We ordered the vegan cashew burrata, vegan franceshina (mind-blowingly…read moredelicious), a pastel de nata and pistachio cookie.

Such a vegan gem in Porto!…read more What I love most about it is that it's a great place to remote work while having some vegan food to fuel your work. I parked here for a few hours for a late lunch and catching up on emails. Bowls are resonably priced at 8-9 euros, and don't skimp out on ingredients! I got the "sweet" bowl which came with sweet potato puree, basmati rice, seitan, mushrooms, eggplant, lettuce, arugula, cherry tomato, walnuts, cilantro, and chili sauce. I absolutely appreciate ALL the condiments because that's where the flavor is! The staff was super friendly, and didn't pressure me to buy more. I got a chocolate pie slice a few hours later, and while it was on the more "dark" chocolate side, I appreciated the fact that it was vegan, appealing, and delicious! The wifi was acting up, but I can't say if it was because of the wifi in general, or the fact that I was uploading some heave documents LOL!

Magical experience overall!!!…read more One of the freshest, most energizing, and feel-good meals we've ever had! Yes, it's vegan food, and beyond that it's just amazingly delicious. The love they put into the food is unparalleled--you can truly taste the good vibrations, and most importantly you can feel the nourishment in your body. The meal starts off with an introductory course, something seasonally relevant and refreshing to open up the palette. Then the main course is eclectic, globally inspired, and serves to amplify the experience to the next level. Then the dessert comes next, an artfully crafted cake or scrumptious pudding. You'll never be disappointed here, since they are always shifting the menu options to keep you satisfied and surprised. Definitely support these folks and their food mission! Great people!

The food, well, is quite original... and that's it. The portions are really good and everything is made for you to try something new, to eat enough, to feel at home. But it's not excellent and we wouldn't recommend it for people wanting a subtle feast. It's, and it was for us, a good way of not starving as we are vegan and didn't want to go too far but it's just alright. Nonetheless, you'll spend a good time there with pleasant people in a sweet place!

I am not vegetarian nor vegan, yet I very much enjoyed my meal at Cultura dos Sabores…read more The restaurant offers customers a choice between a buffet and an á-la-carte meal. There is only one main course on the á-la-carte menu: the francesinha, a vegetarian/vegan version of a local specialty dish. I've never tried the original dish, but the vegetarian version at Cultura dos Sabores was off the hook delicious. The buffet has a cold section and a hot section. I snuck a taste of the eggplant wrap (filled with plum--yum!!), the seasoned potatoes, and an African kale salad. These were all wonderfully flavorful, reminiscent of vegetarian meals I've had on Buddhist retreats at Spirit Rock in Northern California. Cultura dos Sabores also offers smoothies and desserts. The two fruit smoothies I tried were bursting with flavor and were not overloaded with apple juice, as can frequently happen with European smoothies. The dessert, a creamy pie with a fruity topping, was subtly delicious. My 12-year-old son really liked it, and he's not vegetarian either.

The restaurant was nearly empty when I arrived, with just two other foreigners there. It never filled up, but later on a couple of groups of regulars came. I ordered a vegan version of traditional sausage with potatoes. While I waited, the waiter brought a small dish of crackers, reminiscent of those I ate as a child. The sausage was okay, but not filling at all. The potatoes were good and the accompanying vegan mayo was delicious. The wine was very good, again, to be expected in Porto. The main reason I came, however, was to enjoy a vegan dessert. I was disappointed to be informed that they only had a vegan dessert one day per week. The whole visit was quite disappointing. It's not easy to leave me hungry after a meal, but POP 101 achieved just that!
