I'm going to be spending shabbat in Lisbon. Has anyone done it? It looks like there is a chabad and a renovated synagogue but it's not really up to date and can't find much details. Also is there someone who's familiar with kosher food situation there?

Sorry I dont have the info you were asking about, but I didnt know if you heard of a town or city called Belmonte. Was told theres a religious community there that were Maranos and that the Israeli Rabinuth held didnt have to convert as they were accepted as being Jews. A friend who was there over last summer said it was the highlight of their trip
