"Wandering into Sporting Clube De Londres on a Friday night feels like crashing the peak hours of a stranger’s wedding—only one where you’re welcomed with gluggable vinho verde and plates of grilled sardines. At the Portuguese canteen in Notting Hill, disco lights orbit the room while Aretha Franklin is belted out on the mic, and friends and family sway in and out of rhythm. If dancing isn’t your thing, pitch up by the fruit machines with a cold pint and a bowl of piping hot chips." - rianne shlebak, jake missing, sinead cranna, daisy meager, heidi lauth beasley
