This week, we’re in Lisbon with one of the city’s top chefs, António Galapito, chef and owner of Prado Restaurant—widely regarded as one of the city’s best—and Prado Wine Bar.

Widely regarded as one of Lisbon's best restaurants, Prado was the city's first farm-to-table restaurant. It is recognized by the Michelin Guide and included in the World's 50 Best Discovery, a guide to exceptional restaurants from The World's 50 Best Restaurants. Most importantly, every Lisbon chef I've interviewed has named Prado among their favorite restaurants in the city.

“I think Lisbon’s culinary scene has really bloomed over the past six or seven years. It feels like we’ve finally had the chance to showcase Portuguese ingredients, cuisine, and culture to the world.”

Below, the local chef reveals his favorite Lisbon restaurants, the restaurants he recommends to chefs visiting the city, the Portuguese products to bring home (and the best places to buy them), wine bars, and so much more. A Google Map with all locations listed is provided at the end of the interview.
