In the neighborhood of Lumiar, so far away from downtown and other tourist attractions I doubt few…read morenon-locals will ever visit, we found this local bakery after visiting a friend. I figure the raving reviews by locals should mean something, and thankfully, I was right!! I won't call this a small bakery, as inside it is rather big with many tables. We wandered in, admiring all the pastries and bread they have, and I am sure looked very much out of place. To our delighted surprise, the owner came up to us and asked in excellent and polite English how she can be of assistance. She told us their specialty is pão da avó (which is in fact recommended by one reviewer) so we ordered that, plus a few other items to try. My husband loves pão da avó (which translates to grandma's bread) and he declares this to be excellent, much better than all the other places we've tried so far, including the much-scorned-by-locals A Padaria Portuguesa (even the uber drivers tell us to avoid that!) The owner told us that unlike the chain who uses frozen dough, here they make everything fresh, from scratch, starting at 3 in the morning. Some of the bread we got were still warm. For me I was delighted that they have ovos moles, a specialty from Aveiro much further north, the chestnut eggs, and the chocolate salami, to satisfy my sweet tooth. Needless to say, like any pastelaria in town, they offer the pasteis de nata. The owner even offered us one to try! The bread is ridiculously inexpensive, €2-3 for one kilo! We ended up getting a bunch of this and that, to fill up any luggage space we may have. Surprise again, the owner has some beautifully printed hexagonal tubes for us to put the egg tarts in, so they can survive the trip home! And oh, they are open on Sundays too!

It seems like they have 4-5 options for the day, and you pick one of them. I chose a feijão (bean) dish, and it was black beans in a sauce of sorts. It came with lettuce, a cabbage salad with some sort of dressing, and some rice. All three sides were amazing. I also had chocolate mousse for dessert, and it was the richest chocolate mousse I've ever had. All of that came in under €10. They also have different sizes of plates: small, normal, and mixed (where I believe you can get two entrees). I got the small, but it was plenty of food. The service is great as well. The place was packed when I went on a Wednesday night, and I completely understand why. I'll definitely be going back!

The staff was absolutely lovely and helpful, trying to explain every dish in English (I'm still not sure what the soup was). Several different salads, 3 main courses (one of which was vegetarian and amazing: Soy stuffed peppers topped with grilled cheese, yum!), soup, juices and Nespresso coffee. They also have free wifi, just ask for the password. I would certainly eat here again.

We ordered a bottle of wine. Wine is cheap in Lisbon. 12.50 for a green Ponte del Lima. We ordered the house special. Appetizers, 3 main dishes and desserts. 27.50 each. We gave the food a 9.75 and the service a 10. Pretty close to the Sheraton and Hotel Lumes. So if your staying there it's worth a trip. We would go back tomorrow, except we booked a foodie tour. The bill was 75 euro's and we rolled out of the restaurant.

Everest Montanha is a gem of a restaurant that offers high-quality, authentic Nepali dishes right…read morein Lisbon. It is located on a side street which might be easy to walk past, but this place deserves all of the accolades and compliments! Inside, it may seem like a quiet, peaceful restaurant with dinner lighting, wooden furniture and Nepali decorations, but it's definitely providing a top tier food experience. It is run by a Nepali family who are bringing the best Nepali dishes for us to try here in Portugal. They are also very sweet, patient, attentive and showed so much appreciation as well. As an Indian, I didn't know what to expect with the spice level of the food and if it would be toned down. However, I was very impressed! Each spicy dish brings out the heat and you can also choose your preference for how you prefer your spice level. We started with onion bhaji as an appetizer which was on the house and it blew me away! It has a crunchy texture, which doesn't shy away with the slices of onion and the spices that add up to a salty, spicy and delicious bite! I highly recommend dipping it into the chutneys offered - there are 3 kinds, which consist of tamarind, chili, and mint. Just a heads up, the chili-based chutney was very spicy but perfect for the heat lovers! We also tried the chicken momos, which are paired with a lentil-based sauce. These were filled to the brim with the meat, which was seasoned perfectly, and the dough was the right texture and consistency. For our main course, we tried the matar paneer, which is peas with house made paneer cheese in a deliciously spicy sauce, and the Himalayan shahi korma which has tender pieces of lamb that are stewed in a flavorful sauce of dried fruit, cream, tomato, cashew and cilantro. These curries come with basmati rice on the side as well. This was my first time trying these Nepali dishes and I was blown away by how delicious they are! You can taste the various spices, ginger, garlic which all marry well together. Overall, Everest Montanha deserves all the love and support so come and check it out if you want an amazing meal in Lisbon!
