Francesinha: Porto vs Braga  – Portugal's Best Sandwich

Recently I was joined by part of the team from Bordr.io on an adventure to try some of Portugal’s best Franchesinhas and to try and figure out which we liked more. The Portuguese Franchesinha is an absolute monster of a sandwich, meat more meat, cheese and more cheese and then drenched in sauce. It may look intense, but a good Franchesinha will get you hooked from the first bite! Porto Portugal is the “home” of the Franchesinha, but Braga Portugal is the home of a refreshed version of what was once a French delight. During my time living in Portugal, I can say I’ve had quite a few of these delectable sandwiches and have already found my favorite places. But as someone who is living in Braga, I can say I’m grateful to have access to these specialty restaurants in both cities. If you’re a meat lover then this is definitely the sandwich for you! In this episode of Not Your Average Globetrotter let’s go on a little food adventure!

  1. I have to say that meal looks like it could start a heart attack. I think the girls had the right idea with only half. Of course twice in day is a bit much. I was so happy watching this vlog as you were so happy and I laughing more than I have ever heard you laugh. Good to see you socialize.

  2. This looks like a croque madame on steroids. Is that why it's called Franchesihna because it's related to that dish? In which case, they should have used the augmentative form instead of the diminutive because it's 10x the size of a croque madame.

  3. be prepared to hear everyone saying that "you did not go to the best place the best place is X". Everyone has their fav. Francesinha restaurant. As for Braga, you went to my favourite one, and by far the most famous too: Taberna Belga. Glad you enjoyed.
