CHAÎNE DES RÔTISSEURS’ MARISCADA ON THE WEST COAST

The Algarve Bailliage of the Chaîne des Rôtisseurs met at “O Paulo”, a restaurant next to the old fortress of Arrifana near Aljezur, well known to the locals for its superb shellfish and amazing views over the cliffs.

After a few starters of octopus salad, crab toast and hot goat cheese in pastry with pine nuts and honey, the “mariscada” (shellfish platter) itself was presented and did not deceive! An amazing feast of oysters, mussels, clams, razorfish, shrimps and crab served with the traditional toasted and buttered bread, enjoyed by all, with the help of the house white wine from Borba… Local pastries and strawberries rounded-up an excellent and leisurely meal. A special thank you to the smiling and efficient staff!

The Chaîne des Rôtisseurs, an international gastronomic association with a strong social involvement counts 25,000 members in 70 countries and is always happy to welcome new members who enjoy the conviviality and friendship of a shared good meal.
