AI summary of what 1 dish mentions say about the food

Reviewers praise the cheese plate at Mercado do Bolhão, calling it a standout. The overall vibe is one of warm, rustic authenticity.

I got a cheese plate from this stand with several different types of Portuguese cheese: sheep's cheese, cow's cheese, goat's cheese, a mixed cheese, and a cow's cheese with spices. The cow's cheese with spices is dense, a little sticky, and spicy. The sheep's cheese is very dry and salty, a proper aged cheese. The goat's cheese is very creamy, soft, and tasty, not even that pungent — I really, really like it. The mixed cheese is a bit salty but very tasty, and the toast helps. Another sheep's cheese with an interesting skin is a bit younger, softer, salty, and very, very tasty. The price wasn't cheap at €17, but I hope they're worth it — and they were very tasty.
