La Joya Cantina - Review - São Bento - Lisbon - The Infatuation
"La Joya Cantina is the rare Argentinian and Portuguese mash-up in Lisbon we didn’t know we needed. This intimate bistrot, located between São Bento and Chiado, is packed nightly with locals chasing what might be the city’s best milanesa, or meat empanadas that are punchy, and equally crunchy and soft. They’ve crammed in as many tables as possible, but you’ll still fight for a seat just to ensure their dulce de leche pancakes are in the cards for the night. The food smartly blends Argentine roots with Portuguese (and broader European) touches. Think grilled octopus and roasted leeks with almond purée." - Rita Geraldes
