100 Maneiras
The title of this post is a restaurant we recently tried, and it was so great I wanted to do a post about it.
Last month we had some friends come visit us in Lisbon, traveling here from London, Baghdad, and Warsaw. It was a nice reunion, and they also got to do a little sightseeing while they were here.
We had heard wonderful things about a restaurant here that does a 10 course meal. I thought it would be fun for us to try while they were visiting. There is no menu, and you can't order anything a la carte. However, the total price for this decadent, 10 course meal? Only 35 euros!
The first course was so cute and inventive - bacalhau (dried cod) crackers hung from mini clothespins!
The second course was a foie gras made with chocolate, served with a mango something or other.
After that, I was enjoying everything so much I didn't bother to take any more pictures.
Oh, except I had to take a photo of the wonderful wine we had so we would remember the name. It was one of the best wines I've had since we moved here.
The last 2 courses were dessert. Every single thing served was wonderful, and managed to be delicious and unique at the same time. Here is a group shot of us at the end of our almost 3 hour meal (!)
If you live in Lisbon or visit, definitely make a reservation here!
