Where to have lunch on the go Belém

The Ver-o-peso market has been Belèm's picture postcard for over a century. This emblematic site of the old Parà is not to be missed. At the magnificent Ver-o-Peso market, you can buy... parsley. It has a unique, invigorating aroma. Combine it with rice, tomatoes, onions and herbs(cheiro-verde), and you've got the basis of all regional cuisine. Numerous "bouis-bouis" where, for a handful of reais, you can enjoy a hearty local meal (try the saltedaçai ), often in a warm atmosphere. Their fried food is quite heavy.
