This food tour is also a journey through intertwined histories of resistance and cultural exchange. By connecting Mozambique, Goa, and Brazil, this experience reveals the legacies of colonialism in Portuguese history through dishes that tell stories of empowerment and transformation. The traditions and flavors you’ll experience highlight how communities have reshaped colonial systems, giving life to these venues in the city of Lisbon.
This isn’t your typical food tour. We will celebrate the flavors of other cultures deeply connected to Portugal. This experience goes beyond just food or history—it’s about celebrating strengh and creativity. Food serves as a powerful symbol of identity, and cultural survival, this tour was designed to honor this.
Over 4.5 hours, we’ll explore Lisbon in a small group (maximum 15 people), visiting 3 local businesses.
