Thanks,
I am in the Algarve.
We have a 2 condos 1 in Albufeira and one in Sesimbra.
I get all the games on DAZN.
We attended the game in London and unfortunately the game in Munich.
But we had a great time.
I guess starting in a non football thread may be odd, but I was roasting coffee when I saw the thread

I am going to be in Lisbon for a port day during a cruise in early November. Are you anywhere near Lisbon?

I love Portugal. We spent time in Comporta a few years ago and absolutely loved it. Stunning beaches, great overall vibe, and so reasonably priced compared to many European beach destinations.

Also multiple trips to Lisbon. This restaurant, which specializes in shellfish, is one of our favorite restaurants in all of Europe:

Comporta is not cheap anymore!
Ramiro is a great restaurant but there are many great shellfish restaurants all over Portugal.
If you are in the Algarve Marisqueira Rui in Silves will always provide a great meal and their bread is sinful.
Right across the river from Lisbon is Ponto Final also very good..it was on Somebody feed Phil.

I'm not much of a coffee nerd but I'm pretty religious about having two "cups" a day in the morning. While the Arabica Bean coffees from Africa (Ethiopia, Uganda, etc...) are generally considered the best, I am partial to Colombian coffees. Hawaiian coffee is also very underrated in my opinion and there is nothing else like it.

It think how you take your coffee has an influence on what you like. French coffees are not for me but most that I know who like it prefer it black.

For me, it is typically a 12 oz cup of Colombian with cream and no sugar, unless I'm at mom's where Maxwell House - black - has been her standard for 75 years.  :yes:
