About APTECE
APTECE is the acronym for the Portuguese Food Travel Association. This association aims to promote food as the main driver for travel, in Portugal and on a global scale. We understand the importance that the blogging community, especially the influence that food bloggers, have in inspiring travel to destinations based on food motives. The gastronomy, Portuguese traditions and products will be promoted across borders. The main goal of APTECE is to invest in the promotion of regional culinary arts as cultural heritage, local and national and distinctive element to attract international tourism to the country.
APTECE will also be hosting the World Food Travel Summit (WFTS) in Lisbon, in April next year.
About the Travel and Food Blog Tour of Portugal
Portugal promoted by the mouth! Come with us and learn about the legend of a greedy friar who, with a stone and great cunning, cheated hunger and tricked a wealthy burgher. Discover monasteries, convents and learn where they first combined “the white gold of India” with left-over egg yolks, giving rise to one of the most famous confectioneries in the world. Portugal has a unique, distinctive and authentic cuisine, composed of traditional recipes written down over the course of centuries. Recipes that conceal stories of flavours, persons and places.
We have so many good things that we want you to try and talk about with your community; from the interior to the coast, from the north to the south of Portugal. Join us! We want to narrate these stories to you and take you with us on a unique and unforgettable journey. It is therefore time to ask for a chair and sit down, for the food is on table, because good conversation and good food always go together.
