In Alma do Cachorro the king is the hotdog. Or rather, the “genuine” hotdog. It is with pride that Júlio Bacalhau, one of the owners, assumes that Alma do Cachorro has “one of the best hotdogs in the city of Porto”, which makes it so appreciated and authentic. The hotdog (with soul) is the most famous one, but there are other options, such as the well-known beef sandwich and other varied sandwiches. Here, the beef sandwiches have names of the heritage of the undefeated city; that is why you can enjoy the ‘Ribeira’, the ‘Sé’, the ‘São Bento’, the ‘Palácio de Cristal’, the ‘D. Luís’, the ‘Aliados’ and the ‘Clérigos’. In a family atmosphere, welcoming, intimate and designed for conviviality and closeness, the aim is to provide an experience that leaves customers satisfied.
