• Descrição: The fish pairs best with a fluted vase of wine, wet with condensation, and a collection of poems by one of the city's many poets- Antonio Nobre, or Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen, whose house can be visited in the city's botanical gardens. Saramago may be the nation's most well-known literary gourmand, but he was a southern boy, addicted to space and light, and when he writes of visiting Porto in Viagem a Portugal (Journey to Portugal), he describes sitting abjectly by the river as he "toys with a dish of cod [and] drinks his vinegary verde tinto . . . out of a sense of duty."
