Since you're a vegetarian, Lisbon is actually easier than most European cities for your diet — but I'll steer you toward the restaurants that are genuinely good. For your day trip, I'm recommending Sintra over Cascais, and I found a vegan café there that will make the trip easy.

Key practical notes for 14–17 October: mild weather, bring a light rain jacket. Buy a Viva Viagem card and load "Zapping" credit — it works on the metro, trams, buses, and the train to Sintra.

## Day 1 (Oct 14): Baixa, Chiado & Riverfront
Praça do Comércio → Rua Augusta. Elevador de Santa Justa (hack: enter from the back through Carmo Square to skip the line). Lunch: Manteigaria for a pastel de nata. Afternoon: Bairro Alto and Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara. Dinner: choose a restaurant in Príncipe Real.

## Day 2 (Oct 15): Alfama & Mouraria
Sé de Lisboa, Castelo de São Jorge. Lunch: wander down to Mouraria — multicultural, affordable vegetarian-friendly spots. Miradouro das Portas do Sol. Evening: fado in a small tasca.

## Day 3 (Oct 16): Day trip to Sintra
Train from Rossio (~40 min, €2.30 one-way). 08:30 train. Quinta da Regaleira first (book online). Lunch: Fortuna Cafe in Sintra town — vegetarian/vegan, fresh wraps and soup. Bus 434 to Pena Palace (book timed entry weeks ahead). Late afternoon: Moorish Castle walls.

## Day 4 (Oct 17): Belém & LX Factory
Tram 15 to Belém: Jerónimos Monastery and Belém Tower. Lunch: Pastéis de Belém. Afternoon: Bolt/Uber or bus to LX Factory. Dinner: LX Factory or Cais do Sodré.

## Vegetarian & vegan restaurant list
**Lisbon:** Veganeats Caffe (family-run, 100% vegan, cash-only) · Os Tibetanos (long-standing vegetarian institution near Príncipe Real) · BouBou's (contemporary plant-forward bistro in Príncipe Real).
**Sintra:** Fortuna Cafe (vegan/vegetarian, take-away for the palace tour) · Bacalhau na Vila (a cod restaurant with a vegan "Bacalhau à Brás").

Tips: Viva Viagem for everything; book Pena and Regaleira now; lunch is cheaper than dinner; look for "prato do dia".
