Portuguese comfort food explained

Comfort food is the kind that makes you feel at home: simple, hearty and full of flavour. In Portugal, that often means grilled dishes, warm bread and a good sauce.

What defines it

It is not sophistication, it is familiarity: flavours we know that put us at ease.

A bitoque with egg and fries is a perfect example of comfort food.

Flavours that stay

A prego on bolo do caco with garlic butter has that same comforting effect.

It is food that satisfies without complication, ideal at the end of a long day.

In Loule

At Pregaria, that is exactly the idea: honest food, made to order and served without ceremony.

It is the kind of meal you will want to repeat.
