Taking a look around the blogosphere this week and focusing on this week's interesting posts. Links in English and Portuguese.
Lisboa na ponta dos dedos (that translates to Lisbon at your fingertips) is talking about the Sandbox Global Summit 2012, which is being held in Lisboa. The video interview is in English with Portuguese subtitles.
Recently, Portugal Untouched traveled north of Lisboa--all for pastries. There is a good short history of patisserie in Portugal here.
For those with romantic dreams of running to another country, Emma's House in Portugal is THE blog where you'll get the good, the bad, the aggravating and the downright confusing when buying and renovating a rural house. Lately, she's been dealing with insurance issues.
Truly, I am in awe at The Bacalhau Chronicle's attempts at Portuguese classic recipes. I'm willing to admit that there are certain dishes that I'd rather buy ready-made--Bolo Rei is one of them.
Although this has been up for awhile, I got a good chuckle from Lisbon City Exile's post that talks about the love-hate relationship with Fado, as well as urban living and the expat.
When I was in Portugal, I kept hearing about this thing called a Bimbi. Food and Wine Portugal explains some of the allure of this kitchen appliance.
