    Introducing A Portuguese Affair - Discovering Portugal with Catarina Araújo
    Aug 5 2023

    It’s no surprise that Portugal - with its blend of natural beauty, rich culture, world-class cuisine and incredible wine - is a favorite among travelers in the know. What is surprising is how little the rest of us know about this small nation with such a big history; and how it’s often overlooked in favor of its larger, more famous neighbor, Spain.


    But, Catarina Araújo, the Lisbon-born writer of one of the top Portugal blogs on the net, A Portuguese Affair, is here to change all that.

  • A Food Tour of Portugal - Part 1 - Portuguese Staples

    A Food Tour of Portugal - Part 1 - Portuguese Staples
    Aug 15 2023

    The Portuguese take food very seriously.  In fact, Catarina believes that one could even say it’s the key ingredient to their collective identity (pun totally intended). In Portugal meals are something to be savored not rushed – and certainly not something you do in front of a computer screen. The Portuguese approach to food is not only healthy, but one that values recipes passed down through the generations, the best ingredients, and tradition. 


    In this, the first of a two part tour or Portugal through its cuisine, Catarina introduces you to the mouth-watering staples of Portuguese food. From how to savor incredible fresh-baked regional breads like Pão de Mafra and bolo do caco, to why your best bet is to always look for foods marked DOP, this episode will have you daydreaming about delicious meals enjoyed on sun-drenched esplanadas.
