Re: Restaurants
The resto in MF jokingly referred to as 'The Bordello' has rooms to rent - properly - now! 
.... and (I'm sure) have been totally cleaned up!
https://www.booking.com/hotel/pt/gue...-beira.es.html
Note Closed Tuesday. Mon-Sat all in menu 8Euro. Wonderful Salmon on Saturday for 1Eur more. Sunday all-in menu a bit more. A la carte too.
Note the Women's day event at the place at the bottom of the road, in the useful info thread.

Re: Restaurants
I would just like to say how good we found the Chinese resto in Ayamonte this time. They seem to have settled down and found regular diners. The Spanish waiter seems to work hard at pleasing everyone and getting lots of Spanish through the door. The menu del dia at only 7.50 incl wine seemed very good. Choice of hot soup with shredded chicken OR spring rolls. main course of chicken or beef, followed by coffee or a desert. Bargain compared to UK. We also tried the two for 22 euro menu last saturday. Wine extra - again good quality, plus a dim sum course. Much better than when they first opened roughly a year (or more) ago.

Re: Restaurants
We tried a new resto in Castro Marim. O Forte.
A la carte, several dishes of the day €8.50, & all-you-can-eat buffet €10 weekdays €15 weekend (with greater choice). One of the best house wines IMO only €4.50 litre €3.50 half. Luckily I wasn't driving Monthly Fado nights €20, on FB apparently.
Its best to go for the buffet IMO.This includes all the dishes of the day.You will see the list on the sandwich board at the entrance. Starters included quiche, salads, ham, salami, polvo, mackerel etc etc. But you have to ask for the main courses, as they cook to order (for most of them thankfully)..... I had steak, BH had a Dorada. There was even a cataplana for that price! Deserts included, we had a fresh mango, but there were baked apples/pears, cakes, chocolate mousse etc etc.
Go to CM after the big roundabout take the left turn towards Corvo. After about 50m there is a small door on the left. Go in and its far bigger than expected. At the back, is another area that will be more of a snack-burger place, and a room upstairs for events.The back is another door leading to the street behind.
A nice place to have 'on the list' for a noshup! Not fine dining at all but worth a go very attentive staff & French speaking boss.

Re: Restaurants
Forgot to mention for the O Forte buffet resto - a la carte resto in CM. Post 1341
Starters included soup. The buffet for the mains included veggies (carrots, brocoli, runner beans 2 spuds). Bread, butter and fish spread etc included. Good to get some veg in - as it is something we often comment on (the lack of) when eating out in ESP/PT.
Best to go (IMO) with friends for a laugh, we bumped into some French friends by chance and they joined us at the table. Often better to eat with friends - but this kind of casual, buffet type of eating is really best shared.
There were also 2 cheeses a curado and a brie - so we had a cheese course before our fruit desert. I am more 'cheesy' than 'sweet' Surprise surprise

Re: Restaurants
I have been to a new bar/tapas opposite Cardenio Theatre, called Meraki (the taste in Greek).
The place is really nice with a great atmosphere with a very nice and friendly staff. Their tapas are different from the usual in Ayamonte. I did not taste them yet, but some friends told me they are excellent.

Re: Restaurants
After lunching with fellow 'BE-Expaters' we were recommended to go to small village (nice drive) Corte António Martins, just beyond Monte Rei Golf.
http://restaurantebelavis.wixsite.com/belavista
The meat was excellent, BH had some of the best lamb chops she has had. Black pork is their speciality (but they have Baked Bacalhau and Tuna etc). No dish of the day so its a-la-carte. We were entertained the whole lunch by their wonderful parrot! Im sure it was me getting the wolf-whistles
On catching up with our friend, she told me that Bela Vista wasn't the resto she recommended, but there is another one in the small village/hamlet. With a big dancing next door and hall for music events. Amazing how this little village has more than CE!
I searched for it and stumbled on a resto site with all sorts of offers so here is the resto our friend recommended, and if you scroll down you will get many resto recommendations/offers
https://www.microsofttranslator.com/...da%2F387001%2F
If a box comes up, just click on the OK a couple of times, to release the page. On the top right you can go straight to the original Portuguese site. Note at the top you can search restos so heres what comes up with Altura (for example) https://lifecooler.com/artigos/lista...=&seccao=comer
Happy munchin' - and thanks for the recommendations ... you know who you are

Re: Restaurants
I mentionned a few days ago.
I have tried their tapas.... They are gorgeous!
I had king size prawns with guacamole sauce, potatoes with eggs cream and ham, and more... Highly recommended! For people who want to taste something different.
