Last evening’s dinner took us to an “it looks warm in there” establishment. We didn’t have reservations, so we were seated in the rear – clearly warmer! – and next to this lovely decor. It did remind me that we needn’t try so hard to celebrate the holidays.
I ordered the grilled sardines…which came in “batches” of 20. ? I ate 19 because I made my esposa eat one to say he did. I like sardines. They’re tiny and salty and abundantly popular here. They have sardine stores much like candy stores in America. The tins are colorful and fun, tempting you to try them in their hundreds of styles.
Today we are heading out to enjoy the last of our rental car. It’s too expensive to park in Lisbon, so we’re better off returning our luxury vehicle and taking the Uber or local transport for a day. The men in the parking garage thought we were nuts for parking 24 hours. That tells you something!
