Eat salt cod inside Cadeg, Rio's wholesale market

Sobre este Tip
Cadeg, the municipal wholesale market in Benfica, hides traditional restaurants and bars among its stalls, with Portuguese dishes and salt cod as the star. Locals come to eat where chefs and shopkeepers do, then wander the aisles of produce, cheese and flowers. It sits well north of the beaches, so go by taxi or app. Opening hours differ between guides, so confirm them with the market first, and a late-morning Saturday visit is a relaxed way to see it.
