Hey, so I will be spending some time in Portugal and was wondering if anyone could share with me some vegetarian meals that I can eat there? In Spain there are markets called mercados that have like a little separated area where you could eat prepared meals and I stumbled across many vegetarian meals there, are there such institutions in Portugal and especially Lisbon?I'm also counting my calories so any information on traditional meals and their calorie count are welcome, especially regarding the desserts and which ones from them are lighter? Also, are there any restaurants besides international fast food chains that have their calories listed?

    Eat a lot of the fresh fish and seafood and walk around as much as you can! Sightseeing burns calories!

    'Princesa do Castelo' Is a nice vegetarian restaurant close to the Castelo de Jorge in Lisbon. And you can get nice Sandwiches almost everywhere
