4 Best Cafes near Vila Nova De Poiares

“Had a wonderful octopus salad here on our first visit. The owners and staff are very friendly and went out of their way to help us even though they didn’t speak English. On our first visit we sat outside in the small eating area as we had our dogs with us. The second time we visited we sat in the restaurant and were amazed by the incredible view from the window. You realise how high up you are. Once again the welcome was friendly and the food was delicious together with a lovely bottle of wine. This restaurant is excellent value for money.“

“A restaurant is a commercial establishment for the preparation and sale of meals,[1] usually also serving all types of drinks. It usually consists of one or several rooms with tables. Food and drinks are served by waiters (waiters).The term restaurant (from the French restaurant, restorer, that which restores) appeared in the 16th century, with the meaning of "reconstructing food, reinvigorating forces", and referred specifically to a soup, a concentrated meat broth. The word's modern usage dates back to 1765 when a Parisian known as Boulanger opened an establishment offering a variety of options. The first luxury restaurant was the Grande Taverne de Londres, founded in 1782 by Antoine Beauvilliers, on rue de Richelieu, in Paris.Before there were restaurants, the only place (apart from inns and taverns) where you could buy ready-to-eat food was the street kitchen. It has existed since the most remote antiquity and persists to this day.According to the Guinness Book, the oldest restaurant in the world and still in operation is in Spain, at Calle de Cuchileros 17, Plaza Mayor (Madrid). This is the Sobrino de Botín, which has been operating uninterruptedly since 1725, although in the early years it wasn't exactly a restaurant, but an inn that received travelers, merchants, drovers. It belonged to the French cook Jean Botín and was not located at its current address, but at Plaza de Herradores, far away. Candido Remis, nephew of the first owner, baptized the house with the current name, Sobrino de Botín.[2]“
