If you are ever in Lisbon and want to taste the most authentic, traditional food (definitely not for the lighthearted) then this is your spot. I was taken here by Portuguese friends that wanted to have me tatse the best of what Lisbon can offer in terms of traditional cooking. This place is not easy to find and parking is not obvious (I would recommend to come by taxi). The setting is tiny, like a small shop front with 8 or 10 tables. In fact, the story I heard was that the owner started out wanting to open a shoe shop and when this did not work very well converted the front into a restaurant. We had octopus, cooked to perfection and exquisite, followed by a stew of beans and various meats. The service and setting is definitely informal at best so come dressed and mentally in this setting or you might not feel comfortable. Not expensive.
This is traditional, informal cooking so not a gourmet setting but the flavours and food are to be tasted by any self-respecting gourmet that wants to understand the soul of a people through its food.
