We were so glad we opted to dine at Chefe Branco, just a short 10 minute walk from the main marina. We both had the Tiger Prawns and Iberian black pork and a side of vegetables.

So glad we came to this great restaurant that was primarily catering to locals.

We ordered wine and an appetizer and I would have been happy to eat dinner in this area.

The temperature was still bearable though. The food took a bit to come out but it was worth the wait. Cogumelos recheados (stuffed mushrooms with bacon) - 6.90 euros. My mouth is watering thinking about it right now. This is one of the best things I've eaten during my time in Portugal. It was so juicy and savory. I could've just stuffed myself with a bunch of these instead of getting an entree. There were five pieces. Tagli Primavera (pasta with vegetables) - 9.50 euros. The pasta was OK. It came with mushrooms. I wish there were more pasta than veggies though. Salads Mista (mixed salad) - 2.50 euros. It was a very plain salad. Bacalhau na brasa (charcoaled cod fish) - 11.80 euros. It was too salty. Bifinhos Peru (turkey) - 6.50 euros. This was the dark horse of the meal. It turned out to be very tasty. It was turkey with cream and mushrooms over rice. The pairing was absolutely perfect, even if the cream and mushrooms did remind me of canned soup. 1.5 Liter water - 2.30 euros. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. It's a very nice place that could seem upscale at first, but actually has a casual, relaxing atmosphere. The food portions were big and not costly at all.
