    By the Bridge on a nice building and with a balcony overlooking the River there is a pleasant restaurant and café. I never used it as a restaurant, so I can't account to the quality of the food, but I used it more than once as a café and to this I can assure that the pastry it is delicious!!

    Service is very nice and the location is superb!! Pastry is very good (and cheap) and the local typical sweets are very well cooked on this house. I highly recommend tasting them while sitting on the nice balcony.

    By the Monastery there is a pleasant terrace with open door café. We went there both during the day and at night and it was always very pleasant. It isn’t usually very crowded, service is regular and so are the products.

    What struck me the most about this terrace was the location – by the Monastery and overlooking the Bridge, River and the other margin. It is very pleasant to admire Amarante’s monuments and also to observe locals, as this square seems to be a central point in city’s movement.

    A few km outside Amarante there are the “preserved villages” – both to the right and to the left of the road. If you follow the sign to the left you will come across a familiar restaurant on the crossroad – it is called Restaurante Casa do Silva. We had dinner once there and we enjoyed it a lot. The recommend food on this small and simple restaurant is roasted meat on the oven – it is delicious!! Deserts are also very good. Prices are cheap and portions huge!

     Great descriptions and fantastic photography. (I love the one with the blue boat hidden in one of the travelogues). You promote your beautiful country very well.
