This year there are many new features: for now, of the 40 participating establishments, 18 are participating for the first time in the Rota do Petisco.
As in the first edition, in relation to the Route's proposed menus, two modalities are distinguished: Petisco and Doce Regional.
Of the total number of participating establishments, 31 will be part of the “Snack” modality, which will consist of a snack and a drink and will have a unit price of 2.50 euros.
The remaining nine will participate in the “Regional Sweet” modality, which will consist of a dessert and a drink and will have a unit price of 2.00 euros.
To go through the 40 stops of the Route of Petisco de Portimão 2012 you will only need the Passport of the Route, which will be distributed free of charge at the various participating locations.
In addition to replicating the base of the original model, Rota do Petisco de Portimão 2012 presents some innovations, namely the increase in the number of participating restaurant establishments, which allows to increase the diversity of offers, respecting, however, the principle of originality ( the menus are all different).
The strong focus on the dissemination of local gastronomy in the various proposed menus is maintained, increasing the prominence of Algarve wine in the menus of the Petisco modality.
But the big news for 2012 is to add a cultural entertainment program to the Gastronomic Guide.
This program will consist of artistic manifestations that will intersect with the various stops on the route, in order to enhance the social and cultural animation that was already felt in the streets of Portimão in the 2011 edition.
In addition to the partnership between Teia D'Impulsos and the Municipality of Portimão, the organization Rota do Petisco de Portimão also has the support of Turismo de Portimão, the Parish Council of Portimão, Turismo do Algarve, the Algarve Wine Commission and the First Aid. It also supports the dissemination of media partners Rádio Costa D'Oiro and Jornal Barlavento.
