This European City Is A Hidden Gem With One Of The Best Food Halls, According To Rick Steves - Tasting Table
"Mercado Bom Sucesso has been serving a wide range of traditional Portuguese food since 1949. Its modern design is unmissable when walking around the heart of Porto, and it's absolutely worth a stop. While farmers' markets are usually held outdoors, food halls are primarily indoors, and Bom Sucesso is no different. This means that no matter when you're visiting - whether it be the dead of winter or the height of summer - you'll be able to enjoy local delicacies in a climate-controlled environment."
"From traditional tapas (or petiscos, as they're called in Portugal) to seafood and pastries, Mercado Bom Sucesso has it all. This is one of the reasons why visiting food halls in Europe is so worth it, especially if you'll only be traveling for a few days; you can soak up so much of the city's food culture entirely in one place."
"Don't miss these Portuguese bites at Mercado Bom Sucesso You can try Portugal's most famous, overstuffed sandwich, the Francesinha, at Lado B's stand in the food hall. Filled with cured ham, roasted meat, linguiça, melted cheese, a fried egg, and a spicy sauce, this sandwich is Porto's delicacy, according to Mercado Bom Sucesso's website. They've even got a vegetarian Francesinha for those who don't want to miss out."
