"If you drive to this isolated windswept bluff, 8km (5 miles) west of Cascais, you won't be alone. This restaurant serves some of the best seafood in the area, making it quite popular -- many folks even ride out from Lisbon to dine here. The low-lying seafront building sports a trussed wooden ceiling and large windows that take in views of the occasionally treacherous surf. The polite staff serves every conceivable form of succulent shellfish, priced by the gram, as well as such house specialties as grilled sole. Arroz de mariscos (shellfish rice) is the most popular specialty -- and justifiably so. Try the rondelles of pungent sheep's milk cheese that await you on the table." Frommers
