Joao met us and was very helpful about all things Lisbon. He had a huge amount of food for us including rolls, meat, fruit, pasties del nata, a bottle of wine and some juice. What a fantastic welcome to Portugal. The location was great. A little out of the centre (but nothing is that far away) which meant it was quiet and very local feeling. Tram 28 stopped at the end of the street which was great as we could get it home after a hard day trekking the beautiful streets of Lisbon! Make sure you eat at Taberna Ideal - a five minute walk from the apartment. It serves Portuguese slow food - we had a delicious mushroom and chestnut pie with amazing tender tasty duck for our main then chocolate mousse with lots of brandy for dessert. It's agood idea to book if you're there on a Friday or Saturday night though. Delightful apartment and we slept very well! At one point out water was cut of in the street but Joao phoned the water company and kept us informed at every step. The water was on within the hour. Thank you Sandra and Joao for a lovely time in Lisbon.
