The
second
night
of
our
grand
tour
in
Portugal,
we
decided
on
a
romantic
ocean-side
dinner,
just
down
the
coast
from
our
hotel
in
Cascais,
Furnas
do
Guincho.
Furnas
to
Guincho
restaurant
is
perched
on
the
rugged
coast
of
Cascais.
It
is
a
large
and
spacious
property
but
we
were
glad
we
booked
as
they
quickly
became
very
busy.
We
decided
to
make
the
experience
more
memorable
and
sat
outdoors
on
the
edge
of
the
sea,
with
splendid
views
of
the
sunset
and
the
sounds
of
the
waves
crashing
into
the
rocks.
This
is
definitely
a
restaurant
for
seafood
lovers
with
a
large
variety
of
fish,
grilled,
baked
and
even
stewed.
The
food
is
more
traditional
Portuguese,
so
don’t
expect
modern,
fusion
or
sushi-like
dishes.
That
means
heavy,
and
the
portions
are
large.
We
couldn’t
finish
any.
To
drink,
we
had
Vinho
Verde,
the
young
local
(Portuguese
wine),
a
white
wine
that
goes
very
well
with
fish
and
seafood,
so
much
that
all
waiters
immediately
recommend
it
when
you
order
something
that
swims
in
the
sea.
Sunset
views
are
a
must,
especially
in
this
location
and
with
the
right
company.
We
must
admit
that
although
a
great
experience,
they're
also
a
great
distraction
(not
complaining)
-
it's
not
until
dusk
appears
that
we
finally
can
concentrate
on
our
dishes
and
their
unique
flavours.
Lovely
recommendation
and
definitely
a
very
romantic
setting.
