Quality gastronomy is one of Porto’s strong points, or it wouldn’t be Europe’s Best Emerging Gastronomic Destination. But if Porto were a flavor, what would it be? Based on this question, Arcádia responded to a challenge from Porto City Council and created a pastry that pays homage to Invicta.
To celebrate its 10th anniversary, Porto. has launched an immersive exhibition entitled “Porto. e as marcas da cidade”, at the Paços do Concelho . In this exhibition, you can explore the city through the five senses… and the new Pastel do Porto has its own space.
What does Pastel do Porto consist of?
In a statement sent to Porto Secreto, Arcádia said that Port wine was the starting point for its creation, to which two of its most famous ingredients were added: the crunchy filo pastry and the soft egg filling.
This Pastel is the result of a collaboration between Chef Sofia Santos da Cunha and Chef Francisco Gomes. The sweet is on sale in all Arcádia stores across the country. The aforementioned exhibition can be visited until January 3, 2025.
