Soon we approached a lively pedestrian-only
street lined with stores and restaurants already
filling with shoppers and diners. We joined them for
a happy hour nosh of sparkling wine and oysters at
the beautiful Lodo Restaurant, one of the most
popular and charming super fresh seafood
restaurants in Faro.
Our tour ended appropriately at Columbus
Wine and Cocktail bar, a hot spot for craft cocktails.
Antonio seated us and then left for the bar. He
returned with a tray of sealed designer bottles, ice-
filled glasses, flowers, and fruit - all very intriguing
and very stylish. Within moments we were toasting
with tasty ruby-red drinks that resembled Mai Tais.
Feeling educated, happy and a bit buzzed, we bid
Antonio goodbye.
