To Eat in Ericeira
With new contenders entering the cuisine scene frequently, Ericeira has a fresh and exciting vibe when it comes to dining. If you are a seafood connoisseur and you like to work for your catch of the day, challenge yourself to find the Clube Naval Praia da Assenta, or Fisherman's Club. The owner will most likely be there to greet you and you will be surrounded by the smells of grilled swordfish and fresh octopus salad. It looks like nothing fancy until you take your first bite. For a trusted traditional Portuguese meal, try the blackened pork or steak at Tasca da Boa Viagem right in the heart of town with a stunning view. For a well appointed lunch (or dinner) with a postcard view, Golfinho Azul is a popular choice. If you wander a bit further down the cobbled streets in the historic center and you stumble upon Mar d'Areia, grab a seat. Pick your own fish, watch it grilled over the coals while you sip on something cold, and let the anticipation build. It is simplicity at its best.
