Family of 10 from Hawaii. First time Douro river cruise. Adventurous eaters. Enjoy eating local, seasonal, sometimes-"bizarre" foods. Been to Korea, Japan, Sumatra, Singapore, Beijing, Shanghai, VN, PI, Jakarta, Mexico, Canada, GB, Italy, Paris, countries along the Danube, and most of the States in the U.S.
Repulsed by overpriced, diluted, ostentatious cuisine and dining spots whose customers are 75+% tourists.
Lunch and dinner budgets of about US $20-100+ per person. We will have ample Lipitor, Lactaid and Rolaid.
Your candid advice/comments about these dining spots for lunch and/or dinner would be most welcomed.
