Petiscos on the climb to the Alta

Fangas is a shop-bar of Portuguese products turned into a petiscos house, on Rua de Fernandes Tomás, the cobbled street that climbs from the Baixa towards the Sé Velha and the university, in a building of historic value. The idea is that of tapas: small dishes of typically Portuguese produce, well presented, for sharing, with a carefully chosen wine list.

What to order

Order several petiscos for the middle of the table: there are gratins in earthenware dishes, stuffed mushrooms, griddled meats and Portuguese cheeses and cured meats. It is a good way to try several things from the cooking of the Centro region without a long menu, and to accompany them with wines from Bairrada and Dão, the surrounding regions.

They take groups of up to 40 people. Its website does not publish closing days: if you go on a Sunday or Monday, call beforehand.
