Fusion in Lisbon, Portugal

Our 2 most memorable meals in Lisbon, Portugal were actually ‘fusion’. I know what you’re thinking…but gotta go with those taste buds of mine. J

At Yakuza First Floor, they operate a very successful fusion sushi restaurant. I highly recommend the fusion platter, 12 pieces (6 pairs) at 60 euros but worth it. The fish taco appetizer was really good too. We paired our meal with 'Sho-gun' sake, which was dry, full-bodied and paired really well with the entire meal. Overall, a great dining experience with superb service.

Salmon Burger

Cuttlefish Burger

Another memorable ‘fusion’, but not exactly fusion cuisine, experience was fish burgers at O Prego da Peixaria at Saldanha! It’s a fun little place, with chips, sweet potato fries or sautéed vegetables as side dishes. We ordered the salmon cuttlefish and the shrimp burger. Both were good, the latter slightly tastier. Hard to beat the taste of fresh shrimp lightly cooked.
