Vera and ! managed to sneak a few hours of walking around Lisbon before the official start of websummit. 24,000 steps later, we were beat, but we managed to see the highlights (if only from outside).
We also stopped in this little hole-in-the-wall restaurant. Honestly, at first I thought the door was a window – it was that small. It was, however, full of locals and the food was superb. I had a tuna steak and steamed veg for 9.50 euro. Seriously. I also had a piece of torta de laranja that was pure evil goodness. Think of a cake made with 12 eggs and 500g of sugar. I’m looking for a recipe. The host kept taking the piss at us, but in a friendly way. “You’re on your holiday and you want to drink sparkling water? What’s wrong with you!” And then when we were leaving, we complimented the kitchen saying that the food had been excellent. His response? “We know”.
Love it.
