Maria Cruz Díaz Antunes-Barradas
Do Jaime Restaurant
On the beach of Monte Gordo, with boats and fishing cabins, there is a simple family restaurant, painted blue, O Jaime (from the beach, as there are other Jaime on Main Street). The owner Mr. James, a former fisherman in the area, serves fresh fish and claims from the sea that are fresh each day. He is also very empathetic and tries to speak to everyone in his broken Spanish, Dutch, and English. He likes to communicate in whatever way it takes. We have continued going there 10 years and we have gone every summer. Another custom is Algarve specialties like the famous Portuguese seafood rice is a rice soup that has among other things ox sea.
There are regular customers increasingly common to hear Spanish and Jaime, a beer! We also celebrated family birthdays there, and Jaime is able to encourage the whole terrace singing happy birthday when it comes to the cake and candles.
