Absolutely loved this book
Absolutely loved this book. Got it in the local wine store and for the next two weeks i was busy following their recommendations! Absolutely loved the vibe and the food in all of those restaurants and bars. I discovered so many hidden gems and new spots!

Excellent Guidebook
It's an extraordinary page. I bought a book, and it arrived very quickly. I planned my trip to Porto, so I purchased the book to guide me through the cuisine of Porto. This guidebook is full of great restaurants and bars. I recommend this guidebook to everyone who is planning to visit Porto and would like to avoid searching and reading reviews.
