The 21 best restaurants in Porto
An indication of the blossoming food scene in Portugal is that, for the first time last year, Michelin dedicated a guide to the nation alone, rather than combining its restaurant offerings with Spain as before. To underline their increasing faith, Porto was rewarded with another two-star restaurant, bringing the total of stars in the city up to 10. But it is not only the fine dining scene creating culinary excitement. There are plenty of young chefs opening innovative, ingredient-led restaurants and many of them in Porto seem to be women; something to be championed. All our recommendations below have been hand selected and tested by our resident destination expert to help you discover the best restaurants in Porto. Find out more below, or for more Porto inspiration, see our guides to the region's best hotels, bars and things to do. Find a restaurant by type: Best all-rounders Best for families Best for cheap eats Best for fine dining Best for walk-ins Best all-rounders Cozinha das Flores London-based Nuno Mendes weaves his culinary magic here to a keen crowd, creating his own niche between Michelin-starred cuisine and bistro fare. Dishes are powerfully authentic, with perfect flavours and an evident respect for ingredients. Start with a few fun snacks like doughnuts filled with spider crab or the turnip nata, Mendes's sublime take on the much-loved traditional Portuguese custard tart (filled with turnip and topped with caviar). Vegetarians will also love the celeriac heart cooked in embers with a Bolognese of smoked beetroot. All served in cosy interiors before an open kitchen and fire beyond.

‘Reverse parenting' allows parents to relax while children handle housework after school
Young parents in China are relaxing at home while their children take care of the housework after school, as the trend of 'reverse parenting' goes viral. Advertisement Yuanyuan, a primary school student from northeastern China's Liaoning province, has attracted nearly one million followers on mainland social media by documenting his daily life with a mini camera clipped to his clothes. Two to three times a week, Yuanyuan gets up at 5am to walk his neighbours' dogs for five yuan (70 US cents) each. After school, he calls his mother to ask what she wants for dinner, then shops for fresh groceries, bargaining with vendors and paying in cash. At home, Yuanyuan cooks meals like braised prawns and pork ribs, usually serving two meat dishes and a vegetable. One little boy has mastered the art of marinating meat for his mother while she relaxes. Photo: Weibo Once dinner is ready, he calls his mother, who is often watching TV, to come to eat.
