Bake The Difference
On July 30th I flew to Lisbon, Portugal for the first time. A couple of days later I visited an awesome vegan bakery in the city. Called Bake The Difference, the bakery only opened in May 2011. It deserves to be a big success as the food is great and the prices are good. My non-veggie friend from Germany came with me and we both opted for a toasted sandwich. I had a cheese, tomato & oregano sandwich along with a strawberry cupcake and hot chocolate. The cupcake was awesome – as was the toasted sandwich. We both couldn’t quite finish our sandwiches as they were very filling. The waiter was very friendly and helped with any questions we had. The menu was only in Portuguese but mostly easy to understand. The range of food was good – from pizza (I’d have had one but it wasn’t available at that time) to quiche to sandwiches, cookies and cakes. The waiter said that most of the people that went in for food weren’t vegans but just liked the food. I was tempted to go back later that evening for more food, but as it was pouring with rain and my accommodation for that night was a bit of a walk away I decided against it. Next time I am in Lisbon I will definitely go there again though and will look forward to it a lot. If you’re ever in Lisbon make sure it’s on the top of your list of places to go. You won’t be disappointed.
