24 July 2016 Miguel very capably drove us from Ericeira to Lisbon. Jorge bought chicken soup for the Tias and Tio Manuel. Luis brought them a taste of the fantastic food from the wedding. The Tias and Tio had lunch and then Jorge, Rosa and Miguel took us too a Madeira themed restaurant for lunch. I am not sure if you have noticed as to how much food plays a part of enjoyment in Portugal - a get together is not an occasion unless there is copious amounts of delicious food. I could live here!! I would be as big as a house but I would definitely enjoy the food and drink way of life.
We rested at the Palace (what an awesome Hotel) and then went out with Luis for dinner (after finishing lunch around 15:00) - see the pattern!! egg and Portuguese sausage, padron peppers, mushrooms and Caldo verde for Michael. Tapas at its best in a Mercado with lots of food stalls surrounded by the actual fruit and veg market (that section was closed on Sunday a00)
