I have one of the best Madeira restaurants for you. Madeira food is simple but delicious and Madeira Portugal is famous for its fresh fish and seafood. I start this Madeira vlog at the food market in Funchal, Mercado dos Lavradores. Today in Funchal is "market day". The local farmers bring their produce to the market on Fridays and Saturdays, so I start by looking at the fresh fruit and vegetable. After that, we walk into the fish market which is open Mondays to Saturdays. This Funchal Market is the best place for fresh fish in Madeira. It is full of all different types of fish, including tuna and espada (black scabbard fish), the Madeira Island local delicacy. You might have heard of black scabbard fish (espada) and banana. After seeing the fresh fish it is finally time to eat at my favourite local snack bar in Funchal. I know for a fact that the chef buys his fish fresh from the local market every day and you will not find a better place to eat fish in Funchal. For me, Bela 5 Snack Bar really is the best restaurant in Funchal to eat fresh fish and seafood. I start with the tomato soup and bolo do caco ( the local garlic bread). For my main course I take the recommendation from the friendly chef and eat wrasse. It is simply delicious. You must eat here in Funchal because it is my favourite food in Madeira.
