"If you’ve only ever successfully struck up a conversation with a stranger during the 8pm glory haze of a wedding party—comparing your Holiday Inn rates as a four-piece butchers Ed Sheeran is empowering, what can we say—then this Portuguese canteen with a banquet hall set-up should be your chat motivator of choice. There’s a perma-crooner on the mic, hearty plates of frango de churrasco on the tables, and a high probability you’ll get on with your new Lisbon by way of Notting Hill family." - heidi lauth beasley
