Eating Like It’s 1977🇵🇹 Portuguese Octopus Stew❤️

Hello Amigas and Amigos in this beautiful Portuguese day!🫡🇵🇹 Today I’m in Atalaia, Portugal, visiting a true local legend — Adega do Careca. Once more... real Portuguese seafood, cooked the same way since 1977 🍽️⚓ And today’s mission? Eat a dish meant for TWO people… alone😅🥊 On the table today 👇 🐙 Caldeirada de Polvo — the heart and soul of this kitchen. This classic Portuguese octopus stew is slowly cooked with tender octopus, potatoes, onions, peppers, tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, herbs, and a splash of wine(or not). Everything simmers together until the flavors fully connect into a deep, rich coastal broth. Normally shared… today it was one person vs one pot 💥🍲 🍷 House Red Wine — simple, light, and exactly what this dish needs. No overthinking, just pour and enjoy 🍇🫗 🍮 Mousse de Manga — light, creamy, and refreshing, with a fruity finish that closes the meal perfectly 🥭✨ Episode is special, because: This meal became the #1 dish I’ve eaten in Portugal so far. No exaggeration — just respect and love🇵🇹❤️ A special thank you to the owner, who has been here since the very beginning, protecting the traditions and soul of Adega do Careca with pride and dedication💛 And thank you to everyone else there — the staff and people were incredibly welcoming, happy to talk, and shared so much useful information about the food, the history, and the local way of life.
