The Portimão Municipal Market once again dedicates a week to Algarve oranges, promoting this citrus fruit between the 10th and 14th of February, with special prices for the public.
The initiative is organized by the Fruit and Vegetable Sector of the Municipal Market and the municipality and has the motto ‘Algarvian orange – there is no healthier fruit’”.
The program includes daily showcookings, held in the morning, from 10:00 to 11:30, with the presentation of menus inspired by the juicy fruit.
