Kind of. We live near a Lidl (similar to Aldi) and it's fine for a quick trip for the staples. But if we're cooking something like what you'd find in the New York Times or Delish or whatever, we're driving to a big old supermarket just like in the States. We find ourselves still following the American model of driving to fill the car with groceries once a week because we like a lot of variety. If you're content with the national cuisine of Portugal, you could totally always walk to buy groceries though. They're fond of fish and a specific kind of grilled chicken. And in fairness, their chicken is really quite good.
