Azenhas do Mar

Let's talk about how splendid Restaurante Azenhas do Mar is, the most talked-about seafood restaurant located at Sintra's coast, on the seaside town of Colares, with its beach, Praia das Azenhas do Mar. Every single dish that was brought out to us was outstanding, from the Cataplana de Peixe, Crab Spaghetti with Clams & Mussels, the Scarlet Shrimp with Garlic and Coriander Rice. Plus osyters, accompanied with boozy white wine. And all the fish they serve are caught by local fishermen, straight out of the Atlantic Ocean. Talk about fresh. So when you're in Sintra, take that extra few miles and head to this restaurant, and experience this place. Great tip: spend the day there, have lunch, spend time on the beach, sip some cocktails at their Tiki bar, and then indulge on that sunset dinner with that stunning ocean view.
