Why Lisbon's Culinary Scene Rivals Europe's Best Food Cities - AFAR
"A massive baroque palace and former royal retreat that pairs cultural exploration with local gastronomy; surrounding rich agricultural lands contribute to regional specialties. After touring the palace’s grandeur, visitors can sample traditional items such as pão de Mafra, a dense, dark bread made from local grains, and trouxas de ovos, a sweet, egg-based dessert with royal origins. Wines influenced by the nearby Atlantic climate are recommended complements to these flavors." - AFAR
