They need a complete tourism overhaul in Portugal. Like every restaurant needs restaurant makeover. The food is the same bland unseasoned meat everywhere you go. No good cheeses. No flavor. No fish choices. Rehydrated cod does not cut it for American tourists . Food needs to be grilled in a fire, not a flavorless electric stove
