Insider Edition: A taste of Portugal in Ottawa

In this issue we take a look at some of the wonderful offerings of Portuguese food around the city. A bakery, grocer, and restaurant you won't want to miss.

Today's newsletter is the Insider, a newsletter full of stories only available to paying Ottawa Lookout and Capital Eats members.

As a member, you also get early access to restaurant reviews, restaurant food maps, food and drink recommendations, the best local date spots, and discounts on events.

Good morning,

At the moment I have two separate sets of friends who are enjoying the warm weather in Florence, Italy.

We’ve had some beautifully inspirational fall weather here in the capital. So as the remainder of summer hangs on, I thought I would indulge in a little tour of all that is Portuguese in our city. We can at least dream as we enjoy a little taste of the mediterranean.

Today we take you to explore the following:

  • An inviting restaurant in Orleans

  • The oldest Portuguese food store in Canada

  • A newly redone bakery on Wellington

  • A reasonably priced white wine
