Yes, I would go here...first, because you did and I can imagine the experience so clearly. Second, because this type of unintrusive service is ideal. And I disliked the vloggers' story because it was pretentious, slighy so, but I'm so weary of them. I would travel to VRSA for a couple days and dine here. Thanks for another pleasure trip.

I don't know if I would ever be comfortable at an expensive restaurant. (I have made a habit of checking out the menu price of the Super Bock/Sagres thanks to your tip.) It's time to start spending my nest egg before it rots, but after so many years of watching pennies and many hours comparing prices, it's a hard habit to break. That said, who can resist an amuse-bouche and why when I hear that term do I imagine a dinner companion holding their hand up to their face to cover a small giggle?

Happy birthday Denise. I am glad to hear that you enjoyed the restaurant. He is a good bartender, he also works at a family restaurant of his. Sammy and I had a great stay and dining experience there. ♥️

Love the presentation/reuse of the couvert on a stone “platter” (I may try this at my next soirée, however, it looks a bit heavy for a server!) and the treats in an old box, delightful!

Just a quick note of appreciation to you. Posts like this and your others have helped us narrow down our list of relocation possibilities, and VRSA is now at the top of the list. Heading there in late September. Thank you again!
