Adega das Gravatas, no Adega das Corvatas (Corvatas is Castilian)
Yes, Passarinhos, not PassarinhasWill be the "Casa dos Passarinhos"?
Rua Silva Carvalho 195, Ourique field.
In Amoreiras area there are many restaurants, but I know a few. I usually only eat lunch (when I have meetings) in the "Casa dos Passarinhos".
Looking forward to hearing where the weekend takes you, Heidi. Have a great Caminho.Alverca to Alhandra was fun - not THAT much highway walking. And Alhandra to Vila Franca de Xira was quite beautiful, the new path by the river was very comfortable, with a toilet, a water fountain, lots of benches, even some shade. And an outdoor gym, not that I felt the need for that...
From Vila Franca (where there was a festival, so the restaurant was sold out of almost everything) I went on to Castanheira do Ribatejo, where there is NOTHING, but the train station was fine.
All in all, a bit hot, but a pleasant, short day. I met an Austria pilgrim, but he was getting ready to take a break just as I was startying, so we just had a little chat. The rest of the day, not a s ingle pilgrim.
Great news, thanks mspath. I know it had been really hurting with some budget cuts, but maybe Portugal is out of the woods now. This villa is really a beautiful spot. And the story of how it was a village labor of love (with people of all ages from Rabacal working over the summers with the experts during the original excavation) was a nice human story. I remember that the young man who took me out to the villa from the museum told me that his interest in this place developed as a child when he spent a lot of his summer vacations out there helping out.Laurie,
The Roman villa/museum at Rabaçal is still open for tourists.
