Pork Sandwich

Chorizo and Omelette sandwich
What’s the perfect breakfast in Lisboa ? A hearty sandwich made at a local, streetside cafe / restaurant. The sandwiches are just perfect to get you going if you’re looking towards a day of heavy sightseeing. Especially the pork variant has a powerful and salty taste, quiet unusual to anything I’d tasted before. The coarse bread gives it a hearty crunch and it plays beautiful off the harsh meaty taste of the pork. The same breakfast stand was also offering an omelette and a Chorizo combination. I was unable to figure out what these things are called, but together with a couple of espressos it’s a perfect hangover killer. The spicy chorizo and the mild omelette is like eating a complete breakfast which you can hold in one hand.
