Pecado da Sé

Braga


Down a side street from Braga's cathedral, this mod little hideaway mixes traditional Portuguese home cooking with international culinary influences, from classic bacalhau com broa (codfish with cornbread) and grilled Bisaro pork to fried chicken, prawn curry and Brazilian picanha (steak) with black beans. At lunchtime, it serves excellent all-inclusive menus (€10).
