The Portuguese are proud of their gastronomy. They appreciate eating and drinking well. Almost all parties include a meal, especially family gatherings.
Staple foods in the Portuguese diet include fish, chicken, vegetables and fruits. Pork, goat, partridge, quail and rabbit are typical meats in Portugal. Famous specialties are sardinhas assadas (charcoal-grilled sardines), pastéis de bacalhau (cod fishcakes) and caldo verde (a soup of cabbage and potatoes). Codfish is prepared in many ways, and it is usually served as the most typical Portuguese dish. Sweets are very popular, and wine is often consumed with meals. Since red meat and fish are a part of the everyday diet, vegetarianism is extremely rare, making vegetarians difficult to place.
At restaurants, waiters will bring out bread, butter, maybe some cheeses and other little things. What you eat you pay, if you don't touch it, you shouldn't pay for it. The daily specials are usually the best bet, especially with the fish, which should be fresh from that same day. Tips are not outrageously high here, just a couple of € is enough.

Out of Lisbon City
One of the great highlights of Lisbon is that you don't have to travel a lot to discover several attractions of Portugal. Everything is in a very short distance and easy to reach. Regardless of what you're looking for, be it beach resorts, magnificent palaces, beautifully preserved medieval villages, romantic towns surrounded by mountains or a world-famous religious shrine, there are a lot to discover around Lisbon.
The most attractive highlights around Lisbon include Sintra, Estoril, Cascais, Ericeira, Mafra, Óbidos, Queluz, Batalha, FatÍma, Peniche and Nazaré. If you wish to have a closer picture of Portugal and Portuguese society, these attractions are a must-see.

Beaches
Lisbon offers several nearby beaches. Even though the waters are not as warm as in the south of the country, the beautiful beaches serve neatly to the interest of everyone; Are you looking for a quiet cove? Somewhere to practice windsurfing or kite boarding? Or just want to relax under the sun? Most of the beaches are clean and fly the European Union Blue Flag for excellence.
It is a tradition for Lisbonites to go to the beach every chance they get, on holidays, at the weekends, or even for a couple of hours after work, so the beaches are never empty. Even in the winter time, it is possib
le to find Lisbonites having a stroll or merely gazing on the beach.
The beaches are located along the railway line linking Lisbon to Cascais.
Praia da Adraga
Considered by the BBC as one of Europe's best beaches, this beach is located just 15km north of Guincho, close to Sintra. Surrounded by tall cliffs, the beach is definitely unspoiled with its clean blue waters.
Costa da Caparica Beach
Located on the south bank of the river Tagus, Costa da Caparica offers the best beaches around Lisbon stretching south for approximately 30 kilometers. The coast isn’t all about vast and lovely beaches but also about restaurants, cafés and lively nights in the summer. One will never itself isolated on this coast. Most bars are open until very late.
Buses depart from Lisbon's Praça de Espanha bus terminal to Caparica town, a 5-minute walk from the beach.
In season, a little open-air train passes through most beaches along this coast - ring the bell to stop at the beach of your choice (stops are numbered). The best ones are Morena and Sereia, surrounded by dunes and with good bars.
