I had Yuzu Ratan, spicy shoyu broth with yuzu flavor. It’s quite spicy for me but good 🙂

We order a bottle of Gradil Alvarinho (20€). I love it!!!

Dessert & Tea @ A Brasileira, This place was opened in 1905 and started selling a cup of cafe espresso. In Lisbon, cafe is called BICA standing for “Beba Isto Com Açúcar = Drink this with sugar.” We had the original BICA too.

We moved to a rooftop cafe to continue chatting…

First Lunch @ Pirata after Lockdown

myeverydayeats
Today we went for lunch at Pirata, one of our favorites. On the way, a shop, which had been closed for the lockdown, was finally open and its dog there too.

Today’s menu. Start with ‘Vinho à pressão’ @ 12:15 p.m.

Mine: carne de porco à alentejana (6.50€)

His: picanha do Uruguay grelhada (7.50€), We learn something new. “Bem ou mal passada? (Well done or rare?)” Probably “Médio a médio mal” is good for us.

Pudim & cafe
