Portugal Part 2

Below is our favourite restaurant in Portugal. We have been coming here for 10years and each time the menu is the same and the taste is still exceptional. It is Portuguese country cooking at its best. On this trip we managed to eat here 5 times in four days we love it that much. Its called Flor da Ameixa in Borderia (289-991-116)

Goat ribs and tomato and onion salad

Clams Natural (personal favourite)

On the last day the owner kindly cooked for us some specialities which was snails Portuguese style and a stew of whole rabbit which her mother (80 something) caught that morning. And don't get put off by the pictures this stew was lovely completely mouth watering tastes and it was a perfect last meal before we returned to England.

Portugal Part 1

We Recently just returned from a trip to Portugal where we have visited many times, but never get bored of the food there especially not the food market at Loule which happens every Saturday. It is by far one of the best markets we go to, it has everything: herbs, flowers for your garden, meat, pastries, bread, spices, dried beans and every imaginable vegetable is sold there. Another thing we like is that they know so much about everything they are selling they tell you so much, what to eat with it, how to cook it, what you should drink with it, whether its good to be had with friends or just by your self on a summers evening.

WE NOTICED SOMETHING ABOUT OUR CHEF

While watching Toy Story 2 the other night we noticed our chef looks uncanily like one of the characters from the film!
