Phot-o' the Day: "Temos Sardinha" in Alfama; Lisbon, Portugal


I've been to 49 states and 31 countries, and the only place on earth I've been where the restaurants proudly proclaim that they have sardines is Portugal. "Temos sardinha." "We have sardines." The good news is that they also have sangria, as in "Temos Sangria."

Sardines are something of a cultural icon in Portugal. Other than that, it's a great place to visit.

This photo is in the Alfama neighborhood of Lisbon, where the streets are so steep and windy that ordinary public transportation cannot access it. Visited September 2017.
