the food list, 2

we spent almost a whole month in portugal, and once more, i decided to keep track of the special things we ate, so that we could make another food list. we’re quite predictable, as it turns out, and return mostly to the same staples: lots of bakery items and sentimental food our moms make. here are the highlights:

my stomach is grumbling already!

when i make these lists, i get the feeling people might think we only eat crap… well, it isn’t true. what you see here is a glimpse, a condensed version of the more interesting things me and P eat. the other stuff, the plain omelettes, soups and other very mundane dishes are not that interesting, and are therefore omitted. believe it or not, all in all, we eat quite decently. :)

Ohhhhhh, you make me want to try them all! especially the codfish burger (!), the salmon, the pork and the octupus. getting all hungry now, going to find something to eat :)

@Vicki they’re small new potatoes, that are boiled and roasted with the peel on. when they’re done, you punch them and pour olive oil with garlic and parsley over them. it’s delicious, and we eat it with baked codfish :)

Adoro as “food lists!”
Sou mais uma Portuguesa ex-patriada, e as fotos matam saudades (mas fazem crescer água na boca!)
