Lisbon – a final post for a while

 Myriad by SANA Hotels: the recently 
renovated hotel on the Oriente waterfront


A last few photos from my recent stay in Lisbon.

Crest on a house in Lapa

Crab and mango salad 

I enjoy eating at Ibo (Cais do Sodré) especially of I get a table by the window upstairs where you can look across the Tagus. The only problem is that the menu rarely changes, though the food is good and they have an interesting wine list. 


Spun prawns

Roasted Cod with black olive pesto and parmigiano cheese
