Portuguese cuisine is famous for using a range of spices with one of the most popular being piri piri. Dishes in the country are full of these small fiery chilli peppers that make the food rich and flavoursome, as well as things like cinnamon, garlic and saffron.
Popular with both tourists and locals alike, piri piri chicken is one of the more well-known dishes in Portugal. The sauce originated in Portugal but is now widely used around the whole world. Featuring lemon juice and zest, onion, garlic, pepper, salt, bay leaves, paprika and herbs such as basil, oregano and tarragon, as well as crushed chillies, the sauce is used as a seasoning or marinade.
Albufeira is a city in Portugal found in the Algarve region, a popular destination among holidaymakers. As well as boasting golf courses, bars, restaurants, a marina and an abundance of hotels and apartments, the food here is delicious. Mainly comprising seafood as the daily fishing boats bring in large quantities of cod, monkfish, tuna, sardines, clams, prawns, oysters and squid. Much of this fish is barbecued; in particular the grilled sardines are a speciality.
Desserts include caramel custard, custard tarts and rice pudding, which are traditionally served with a sprinkling of cinnamon. Selections of cheeses, mainly made with sheep or goat's milk, are usually available as well. Pastries are very common in Portugal, found in coffee shops and bakeries. While each town has a specialty, many are rich egg-based custards but others are chocolaty, creamy or made with marzipan.

There are vast amounts of cafes, restaurants, bars and shops in the nearby area as the four star accommodation is located in the heart of the city.
