Lagos
Eating out is part of the pleasure of a holiday on the Algarve,
and Lagos offers the best of the best choices of establishments in
which to indulge. Seafood lovers will be ecstatic, but no one, even
vegetarians, will be disappointed or go hungry. A good choice at
the marina is the Do Cais Bistro, which serves waterfront
breakfasts, lunches and dinners seven days a week. For creative
international cuisine in the town centre (including vegetarian
dishes) Duquesa Restaurante is hard to beat. Truly gourmet local
specialities like pork chops with figs, savoury shrimp and
succulent shellfish, are enjoyed at the Don Sebastiao tavern in the
old town pedestrian area. This restaurant also has the best wine
cellar in town. The English-run No Patio is also popular with
expats.
