Time Out Market is a concept created from scratch by the Time Out Portugal team with only the best ideas and business projects in Lisboa – according to the editorial team. If it’s good, it goes in the magazine, if it’s great, it goes into the market. 24 restaurants, 8 bars, a dozen shops, a cooking school and a high-end music venue, all with the very best in Lisbon (the best chefs, the best steak, the best hamburger, the best sushi and the best live performances, amongst others); on the other hand the market is home to some of the city’s best known (and longest-running) market vendors of meat, fish, fruit and flowers. The foodhall has 40 restaurants/shops served by more than 500 seats in covered area and 250 more outside.

Praça Luís de Camões, interchangeably referred to as Largo do Camoes, the both words translated as "square", the location may not strike you by its sheer scale, for it lacks the grandeur and historical significance of both Rossio and Praça do Comércio, but its more intimate and, shall we say cozy, design is more conducive to a leisurely and more relaxed hanging-out, that being the reason the square is always bustling with life, comingling of residents and visitors alike, and a place of eternal rendez-vous for all ages. By now, you will probably know that the square is named after one of the most important founders of Portuguese poetic and literary language, Luís de Camões (1524-1580), usually referred to as "Portuguese Shakespeare". Architecturally, the square is surrounded by fine "Pombaline" (the style that domineered post-1775 earthquake Lisbon urban reconstruction) buildings and impressive mosaic pavement, the famous "Calçada Portuguesa", however, honestly, both the houses and the pavement are omnipresent almost anywhere in Chiado and Baixa central districts of Lisbon. The location is right in the middle of Chiado district with Rua do Alecrim leading down south to the TimeOut Market, and the "Pink Street", with Rua da Misericórdia leading up north towards Largo Trindade Coelho (with its Church and Museum de São Roque) and Calçada do Duque, with Bairro Alto "party-non-stop" neighborhood to the west and Largo do Chiado (Cafe A Brasileira with the statue of Fernando Pessoa) and Rua Garrett, with the area's both of Lisbon only 2 Michelin stars restaurants, to the east. Certainly there are tons of places to eat and drink, with two best Pasteis de Nata (freshly baked custard pies) joints in town, Manteigaria and a small Pastelaria Batalha, across the square of each other. Quiosque Lisboa, a round-shaped kiosk, located on the square itself offers hot beverages, wine, snacks and light meals, with sitting-down area complete with chairs, tables, and umbrellas against the elements.
