About this dish
Francesinha poveira, or simply francesinha regionally, is a fast food dish from Póvoa de Varzim in Portugal. It resembles a hot dog only in shape, but the sandwich is made of linguiça (somewhat similar to a sausage), fiambre (a kind of ham), cheese and mustard in pão cacete or pão de francesinha, a type of bread that could be described as midway between a baguette and a hot dog bun.
