Petiscos do Pedro

Just above Praia da Ribeira de Natal, Petiscos do Pedro is much more than just a roadside food truck. The people behind it are former chefs who decided to take the leap and fulfil their dream of working for themselves – and you can tell that food is more than just a business for them. Alongside the food truck, they’ve created a lovely little seating area across the road, with tables in the shade of the trees. It’s a simple but really inviting place to sit down, enjoy your food and take your time rather than just grabbing something to go. For us, it’s exactly this combination that makes Petiscos do Pedro worth stopping for: good food prepared by people who know their craft, a relaxed setting and the personal story behind a small local business. Good to know: payment is cash only. It’s also a great place to combine with a swim at Praia da Ribeira de Natal.
