After years of growth in several of the main cafés in Porto, the founders of Ruial decided to establish themselves on their own and, in 1992, Café Ruial was created. It presents itself as a traditional place, distinguished by the quality of its speciality – the famous Francesinha. Traditional, with a sauce “behind the ear” – the most commonly praised ingredient – and the French fries, homemade, peeled by hand and always fried on the spot, make this Francesinha one to consider. Also known by the typical Portuguese little hotdogs and other dishes, which are characterised by the traditional taste of homemade dishes, it is an excellent option for any occasion.
