27. April 2012: Porto Escondido
The Porto Escondido bar is a pretty interesting place – it is located close to the river shore in a courtyard so you will not find it immediately. We tried to order some things from the menu but that turned out to be pretty difficult as the waitress did not speak a single word of any other language but Portuguese. So we got a plate of cheese with oil (about EUR 2.50) which was okay – pretty regular food, nothing special.
And we managed somehow to order a plate of ham and olives (around EUR 4.50). The olives were pretty regular, the ham was okay.
The prices are very low, the place looks pretty deteriorated and simple, the waitress speaks no English or any other language but was very friendly – the beer was served quickly and the food is okay (especially for the price you pay). It is okay to stop there (especially as it was the only place being open at 9am) but it is no place I would go to on purpose.

I started the blog in October 2009, while living in Milan which I definitely consider to be one of the food capitals of the world. I was in touch with food since my early childhood (as my father is a former chef). Whenever I can, I travel the world to discover new places, to meet people but mostly to try local dishes and to find hidden gems! If you know a place worth going, please drop a line to: info@thediningexperience.org.
