Well, look where we ended up!
Being the 2nd largest city in Portugal, Porto is famous for the port wine they make. I've always ooo'd and aahhh'd at this area when passing over it on the bridge. Such history and character!
We ate at a restaurant called...translated of course, "The House of the Black Mamas Daughter"
Now if that's not a name....I don't know what is!
It was a little rainy so my camera struggled to focus and of course there were rain spots on the lens....but I'll share them with you anyway.
Just remember... this is not the extent of my photography skills!
This was my husbands plate. Fried Codfish with home made chips and sauteed onions. The menu said this dish was prepared ''Black Mama Style". And later he had the nerve to ask me to learn how to make it! Some things are better left alone.....
After trying a bite of my food, he said it tasted like bologna compared to his! Bragging a little, wasn't he?!
Anyway, it was a lovely evening spent with my favorite person.
Excuse me while I say "thank you"......
~~~Muito Obrigada, Beijinhos, Meu Amor!~~~
Hope you enjoyed your tour of Vintage Porto.

Hat Chick,
That couple is upstairs eating. They were sitting at tables that were placed in that window. All the buildings along the river have those same style windows up top. We ate up top too, but it was a little different.
Cool, huh?
Nice, thanks for sharing!

I understood everything but ¨beijinhos¨... wow!!!
