Notícias de Coimbra2 September 2026 at 09:12

The Confraria da Chanfana of Vila Nova de Poiares, in the district of Coimbra, wants to make history in October by offering a large quantity of chanfana, a traditional Portuguese dish made with goat meat. The initiative aims to promote this typical delicacy of the region and establish the municipality as a gastronomic reference. The confraternity, dedicated to the preservation and promotion of this traditional recipe, organizes the event to demonstrate the scale that the local culinary tradition can reach. The goal is to break a record or reach a significant quantity of chanfana to offer to the community and visitors.
