If you want to try something exclusive and original, you will find a world of flavours from the sea here, each in its own can: spicy chilli sardines, tuna with aromatic herbs, mackerel fillets and Atlantic pomfret. Bear in mind that canned fish are among Portugal's finest products and are traditional in Portimao. The owners thought that would make perfect sense to use that tradition as the basis for Maria do Mar.
