Pingado: Portuguese espresso

Espresso is made quickly by adding 14 to 16 grams of coffee powder to pure water at 88 to 95 degrees Celsius at 9 to 10 atmospheric pressure in 22 to 28 seconds. Due to the lack of water, espresso has a strong flavor. Pingado means "one thing", which is a drop or two of milk in an espresso made from Portuguese Bica beans to float a white cloud in a black drink with slightly caramel gold.

Uma bica: heavy concentration

Also espresso, Uma bica has a very strong taste. This is strongly reflected in bitterness, but for those who want to taste the purest aroma of coffee, this is undoubtedly the most fragrant and mellow coffee choice. If you order a Uma bica in a Portuguese cafe, the enthusiastic Portuguese will say to you: "Beba isto com a ç ucar" must be sweetened!

The Cafe in Lisbon

Nostalgia: Leitaria A Camponeza

Leitaria A Camponeza, based in Lisbon, is a century old, but it hasn't always been a cafe. Before that, the southern European building with all kinds of colored tiles and exquisite relief was a dairy store. The coffee shop owner follows the original style of the building, making diners feel at home as if they were in a nostalgic movie scene.

New trend: Gr é mio CafeGr é mio Cafe

Share a small space with a bicycle shop, but the cup of coffee presented by an inconspicuous shop is like a work of art. The owner of Gr é mio Cafe originally worked in a high-end restaurant in London. When he returned to Lisbon, he founded the coffee shop and applied his rich culinary experience to it. There are not only creative coffee, but also delicious Portuguese cuisine.
