3. The bakery that would later be known as Piriquita was founded in 1862, some 160 years ago. The name Piriquita originated from the nickname that King D. Carlos I gave to Constância Gomes, based on his short stature. It was King D. Carlos I who encouraged the couple to prepare the famous Queijadas, a sweet that they enjoyed during their summers in Sintra. Success was immediate and the bakery quickly became a pastry shop.

About Lissabon

Lissabon vælter ned ad sine bakker mod Tejos munding, en by med kakkelklædte facader, raslende gule sporvogne, udsigtspunkter og sene, rolige middage.

De gamle kvarterer rummer det meste af charmen. Alfamas virvar af stræder klatrer op mod Castelo de São Jorge og genlyder af fado om aftenen, Baixas ordnede gadenet løber ned til det enorme Praça do Comércio ved floden, og Bairro Alto og Chiado blander boghandlere og caféer om dagen med barer om natten. Udsigtspunkter som Santa Luzia og Senhora do Monte indrammer røde tage og skinnende vand.
