I said, 'We gotta go stand in this line right now!' Hubby, tired, had to find a washroom. So I stood in line, got this huge, hot, crunchy, amazing strawberry jam filled delight and spied him coming back down the street. For a second, I considered zipping out of there to stuff my face with it so I wouldn't have to share. But he saw me - too late. Pro tip:. Everyone get their own croissant or there's bound to be trouble here.

I thought that was for sure it until I discovered them in Porto as well. These guys primarily sell one thing, and it's the same everywhere. Clearly they like their formula. Obviously, I had the pasteis de nata. Curiously, at this location specifically, they refuse to sell a single one and instead sell in groups of two. This one was not my favorite. The pastry shell does have a good crispness and flakiness to it, but the problem is the inside is just way too sweet. The custard is just sickly sweet - such that it simply doesn't work with the egg flavor. It seems to be a problem unique to this chain, as I haven't noticed this sweetness anywhere else. Overall, I would look elsewhere for pastel de nata. 5/10

We had caught the ferry over to the "Southbank" on a gloriously sunny March Tuesday and were just wandering about in the vague direction of the Cristo Rei statue, enjoying the views and the local architecture. Around 2pm we found ourselves on the main drag of the pretty old town of Almada and we came upon Arantes & Morgado. It was packed to the rafters with local folk both young and old, with a motley crew waiting patiently by the door for a table to become available. A good sign if there ever there was one, we joined the queue and stood in line. There was a blackboard outside with the specials of the day chalked up but with my "vino tinto" grasp of the language and no mobile signal for googling purposes I was a bit scuppered. However, this was not a problem as we got into conversation with a fine local fella as we waited. It soon became clear that this was the best place to eat in Almada and was as cheap as chips. Much to our good fortune our pal informed us they had a local classic, the fishy pasta, on the menu this lunchtime. After a wait of around 15 minutes we were ushered in and shown to a basic formica table which was hastily furnished with a paper tablecloth, four upturned plates, some cutlery, bread rolls and a plate of cheese. With a little help from our new best friend, and his growing band of pals, we ordered one large portion of the massada de peixe to share between the four of us, a litre of water and a big jug of the vino verde. The friendly staff, who spoke no English, and who obviously didn't get a lot of tourists dropping by, nodded and smiled at our choice. Our vino verde came out in no time and was light, refreshing and had a good bit of fizz to it. While we were waiting we watched plate after plate of good looking food come out of the kitchen. B was loving the sight and smell of the thin crispy fried potatoes and was on the verge of ordering a portion when a big rustic "casserole" dish, full to the brim with the massada de peixe, was placed in the middle of the table along with a serving ladle. Well it looked good, smelled divine and tasted even better. Other than the melt in the mouth prawns and some squid I have no idea what types of fish this dish contained but there was a good selection and plenty of it. As instructed I added some piri piri sauce to my portion which gave it a nice kick. Although designed to feed two people this big dish was plenty for all four of us and we only just managed to finish the lot. I had a good, strong cafe to finish my meal and we got the bill. I've posted up a picture because it's a sight to behold - four hungry people wonderfully fed and watered for 14.60 euros!! We said our goodbyes to the lovely staff and the very friendly locals and made a mental note to return here straight way on our next visit to the great city of Lisboa.

When we arrived, they were just doing counter service and closing for the afternoon, but we were able to get a panini and we found local craft beer (which was pretty neat) and they let us eat on their patio. I had the Iberian sandwich which has Iberian prosciutto, flamengo cheese, lettuce, tomato, and pickled red onion. It was the perfect sandwich to cure my hangry. When we went for lunch the day before we did not know that this café was also the breakfast part of our bed and breakfast. We stayed at a bed-and-breakfast the next street over and both mornings a continental breakfast at this café was included. This is one of the best breakfasts I have ever had as part of the bed-and-breakfast. We were each served a portion of fresh fruit (which changed by the day), a boiled egg, a couple slices of ham and cheese, a pastel de nata, a basket of crossiants and rolls to share, and whatever you would like to drink. I had fresh squeezed orange juice, and a latte both days. Thankfully, like most places in Portugal they offer dairy alternatives. I honestly still dream about this breakfast. The wait staff on all of our trips were so friendly and helpful. It is really a beautiful set up and they have many things that you can purchase as well. I personally purchased a bowl shaped like a strawberry that I now have in my kitchen. This is definitely a stop. You need to make while in Sintra!

There are books that lined the sides of the cafe. The latte is quite a large size (16oz) for EUR2.70. A little high on the cost but it is creamy, foamy and quite nice. We noticed fellow patron's meals are large in portions. Service is decent. The staff were attentive and made sure we were helped. Overall, not a bad place to be if you want a drink, chill, or have brunch.
