A Portuguese Love Affair - Review - Hackney - London - The Infatuation
"Cosy and casual, A Portuguese Love Affair is the kind of all-day spot found all over Hackney: breakfast, baked goods, coffee, light lunches, and natural wines. This makes it a magnet for the local creative, artsy crowd. Unlike most, it focuses solely on Portuguese food. So those baked goods include a mouthwatering meat bola, or a ham and chouriço-stuffed brioche-like bead, while the short lunch menu includes on-point bacalhau à brás, bifana, and vegan options (relatively rare in Portuguese spots). They’ve won awards for their pastel de nata, and it’s easy to see why. They are probably the best in the city: on the runny side but utterly delicious." - Tomé Morrissy-Swan
