20 meters of bifana with cheese: In this locality a true delicious "monster" is prepared

Notícias de Coimbra4 September 2026 at 12:58

The municipality of Vendas Novas, in the district of Évora, once again challenged the limits of gastronomy by preparing a 20-meter-long bifana with cheese. This feat surpasses the previous attempt in 2024, when a 15-meter bifana was made.

The event was organized as a way to promote the region and Portuguese gastronomic tradition. The bifana is a typical dish of the country, consisting of marinated and grilled slices of pork, usually served inside a bread roll.

The initiative also aims to attract visitors and boost the local economy, demonstrating the community's ability to organize large-scale events. The gastronomic "monster" was prepared with the collaboration of various members of the local community.

The 20-meter bifana represents a milestone in Vendas Novas' tradition and positions the municipality as a reference location for unique gastronomic events.
