Space constraints require pre-cooking of the Salardaise potatoes. I will cook them through and brown them now, then add the garlic when I reheat, after the duck is crisped in the air fryer. We only have 5 amps so it’s one task at a time as the frying pan won’t fit on the gas cooker! #wp #gastrovanner #gastrovanners #birthdaydinner

Getting worse. Radar says rain for next 93 minutes, which is going to make the wine run to Reception a little tricky. It’s all very well but we didn’t pack for this. Nothing in our experience of our last two visits prepared us for this possibility. #wp #portugal #sagres #weather #rain

Biblical downpour. Dusty definitely not impressed. We have had to dig a moat and drainage ditches. The cat litter scoop came in handy! #wp #portugal # Sagres #rain

I love the ceramics on display at the Cape St Vincent lighthouse complex. Long time readers of mine may have seen photos taken last year… but I couldn’t resist doing it again. Would like to visit the studio where they are made. Perhaps it will be within cycling distance. #wp #sagres #portugal #cape st Vincent #ceramics

We had read recommendations of the Almond Torte. Sad to say, it wasn’t all that. Overall, given the reputation of this place, sadly disappointed. It is under new Management, apparently. On the up side this does at least mean that they are open (on our previous two stays, they have been closed) We will give them another try before discarding completely. It may have been a bad day Do however love the ambience, vibrant and very local. Delta coffee too. Luuuuurrrrve Delta coffee! #wp #gastrovanners #gastrovanner #portugal #sagres #lunch #disappointment
