We went to Setúbal by train because he had an appointment at SEF.
Train was supposed to leave Areeiro-Roma Station @ 7:43am but 7:49am. Then the train stopped on the half way and we had to take Uber to Stúbal 😦
While he was at SEF, I walked around the town, which is famous for Choco Fritto (Fried Cuttlefish).
I was hungry and had a croissant & meia de leite (latte) alone around 10:30am.
Portuguese love making everything sweet. This one got doce de ovos (egg cream) inside. So good 🙂
He finished the appt around 11:15am and we killed time till noon when all restaurants opened for lunch.
Salada 2.50€, Tomato tastes much better than in the US. Most salad got only olive oil and salt, but tastes amazing.
Picanha (Brazilian Beef) 12€, It was good but we feel it overpriced since our favorite place offer 8€ lunch course including a main course better than this.
Choco Fritto (a half portion) 8.50€, It was actually ok. I prefer smaller squid for cruncher texture and more flavor.
Total was 25€. I think we should stick to places the locals go even when it’s the first time to be there in town. It would be a bit intimidating but be absolutely better experience not only lower price but also we would know what real food is there.
