Bentos Restaurant in Faro

Great meal, great company

On Sunday we went to a restaurant in Faro (follow the harbour round to the old walled town and it is on your right) for lunch and we met the owner. The restaurant is called Vivmar Restaurant de Bento Algarvia and we met the owner Antonio Joao Bento, the walls are plastered with his boxing achievements in the super lightweight categories. He is 38 and still boxing.  I have to say that he is very charming and does not look or sound like I expected a veteran world champion boxer to be.  The restaurant is traditional Portuguese, great value and good food served up by Antonio, if he is there, or his wife.
