Meet Jorge & Isabel
A taste of Portugal, shared from our home with love.
Olá! We’re Jorge and Isabel, a couple from Porto with a passion for Portuguese food, good wine and the simple pleasure of bringing people together.
At Final Touch, we believe that the best way to discover a culture is through its food — and that the most memorable meals are the ones shared with others. That’s why we open the doors of our home and welcome guests into our little world, where traditional recipes, family stories and genuine hospitality come together around the table.
Our home is a cosy apartment in Porto, with a beautiful terrace full of plants where we host our cooking experiences. It’s a relaxed, familiar space where you can feel at home, get your hands involved in preparing Portuguese dishes, or simply enjoy watching, tasting and discovering at your own pace.
From traditional Portuguese meals to our much-loved Pastéis de Nata, we love sharing the flavours we grew up with, the ingredients we cherish and the little secrets that make Portuguese cooking so special. But for us, it’s never just about the recipes. It’s about the conversations, the laughter, the wine poured around the table and the connections that happen when people come together over good food.
We’re not here simply to teach you how to cook. We want to share a little piece of our everyday life, our traditions and our way of welcoming people. Whether you’re an enthusiastic home cook or someone who just loves discovering new flavours, you’ll always find a place at our table.
For us, the final touch is not just an ingredient or a cooking technique — it’s the warmth, care and joy that turn a meal into a memory.
Come as a guest, leave as a friend.
We look forward to welcoming you into our home and sharing a little taste of Portugal with you.
Final Touch Porto
The Francesinha is one of Porto's most famous dishes: a hearty sandwich traditionally layered with bread, different meats and melted cheese, then covered in a rich, flavourful sauce. Every local has their own favourite version, and the sauce is often considered the heart of the dish. During this workshop, you'll learn how to prepare your own with guidance from a local family.
Not at all! The workshop is designed to be easy and accessible, even if you're new to cooking. Jorge and Isabel will guide you through the preparation step by step, helping you assemble your Francesinha and understand the different elements that make this dish so special.
Yes. Food and drinks are included, so you can enjoy the Francesinha you prepare and share a meal with your hosts. The experience is designed around cooking, eating and connecting in a relaxed, family-style atmosphere.
The experience takes place at Final Touch Porto, the home of Jorge and Isabel, at Rua do Amial 723, Porto, Portugal. You'll be welcomed into their home and terrace kitchen for a personal introduction to Portuguese food culture. Public transportation is available nearby, but private transfers are not included.
The experience takes place on Jorge and Isabel’s terrace in Porto, offering a relaxed setting to discover Portuguese food and culture. The workshop lasts approximately 4 hours, including the cooking experience and shared lunch. Public transportation is available nearby, although private transportation is not included. The venue is stroller accessible but is not wheelchair accessible.
The workshop will take place at our home's terrace, so if it cold, warm or raining, we will be in a covered area, but exposed to the heat/cold of the season. Please bring appropriate clothing.
