Food Scene
Only 3km from the house you'll find one of the best restaurants in the area.
Everything is good here! My favourites are "Peixe Rei" (small fishes, fried) and "Espetada de Lulas com Camarão" (squid and shrimp kebab). The grilled fish or shellfish rice are also great options.
It's very busy in the summer, so it's a good option to go at lunch time or early dinner. They don't do reservations during the summer months.
They have Take Away Chicken. Here's their number if you wish to place an order: 00351 281 961 222
