Brasa Lisboa — Restaurant in Lisbon

This wasn't just a sunday lunch, it was a whole Portugese experience. My friend and I, hungry, stumbled upon this restaurat by chance. The owners welcomed us with open arms and explained the menu for the day. Everyone was very nice, even though we were clearly turists, and didn't know any Portugese, which is not usualy the case.

Highly recommended if you're looking for genuine hospitality and a meal that feels personal...
