My cousin swore I could do 5 days in Lisbon for $300, and she was almost right

She told me to book the bus instead of the train from Madrid and skip the hostel breakfast, which saved me about $90 right there. The part she got wrong was the food budget, I blew through $40 in one night on sardines and wine in Alfama. Anyone got a cheap eats list for Lisbon that won't wreck my next trip?
