Restaurante Flor do Ave em Trofa

Para comer um dos melhores leitões que servem na zona metropolitana do Porto. Situa se na Trofa, e é um restaurante com 2 pisos, e leitão está sempre a sair. Excelente relação preço/qualidade. Serviço com alguma rapidez e simpatia. Para estacionar o restaurante disponibiliza um parque em frente gratuito. O leitão mais parecido com o da Mealhada. Acompanhar com vinho frisante ou com típico Aliança Bruto Tinto. Aconselho vivamente

Spectacular place! The best leitão (roast sucking pig) I have ever eaten. Better even than Mealhada, which is internationally renowned for its leitão. The owner and servers were warm, welcoming, and very attentive. We were served a hearty appetizer of presunto (Portuguese dry-cured ham) and honeydew melon, accompanied by the freshest bread with the crispiest crust. Delicious! The main course was incredible--the leitão had a crispy, crunchy skin and meat so tender and juicy that it literally fell off the bones. So, so good. The leitão was accompanied by a pile of fresh house-made chips (crisps) and a big salad. We washed it down with some Portuguese sparkling white wine and ended the meal with a traditional pudim flan (crème caramel). The owner took the time to tell us about the cooking methods they use and then invited us to take a look at the ovens where the leitão are roasted. Overall, a very memorable meal.
