Tia Rosa - Ourém

Went in coz it looked popular with locals...not disappointed. The lamb stew was deliciously tender. The Portuguese pork, not so much, but still ok. They had run out of cod and octopus...sad!

Helmed by a gentleman of Portuguese descent, but with many years in Canada, Tia Rosa is located very close to the famous Shrine of Our Lady of Fatima, Portugal. We strolled in late-ish for lunch as usual but were warmly welcomed by the host who spoke excellent English,and went to a lot of trouble to explain the composition of each dish. We enjoyed some excellent roast pork, fried fish fillets, chicken, and a specially made omelette for one of us who was vegetarian. As usual the house red was of acceptable quality.
