TABERNA DO GABÃO
Read moreHere's an establishment whose rustic decor transports us, mixing culinary influences in this land of transition between Alentejo and Algarve. You'll have to climb a bit to get there, but the effort will be amply rewarded. Fresh grilled fish(sargo, pargo or linguado), tuna steak and an excellent feijoada rica de choco en polvo, the house specialty. Otherwise, you can always try a good grouper skewer. Attentive, efficient service, with a kitchen that opens directly onto the dining room.
O PALHEIRO
Read moreIn the lower town, in a small street off the main square, this is a popular place with no apparent charm, but it serves excellent rustic cuisine based on tasty seafood. If you haven't tried the "açorda de mariscos " yet, this is the perfect opportunity, since this specialty is served here in a homemade version, with the shellfish dipped in a large loaf. The other curiosity will be the plate of percebes, a shellfish quite rare in our countries. And if you feel nostalgic for the Breton platters, there is still the whole crab.

TERESINHA
