Awesome food and restaurants in albufeira Portugal

Our flight to Sweden today is delayed by 70 min so I have all this time to write and remember our trip here in Algarve region. 

This one is all about the food.  I can see why people in Portugal live longer.  Food is fresh and with minimal salt and seems much more organic than the organic food in the U.S.  

We ate well and inexpensively. Most expensive dinner was like 70 euros for 2 with alcoholic drinks.

Our favorite restaurants 
- Cuica Restaurante at Oura beach. Had lunch and dinner here   The grilled fresh sea as from the ocean was divine.  Here is my google review. 
- o Zuca - a local restaurant in old town on a quiet alleyway behind the old town square.  Their chicken soup with veggie was 2 euros and I could have had that for lunch.  We also had grilled sea bream.  Only 30 euro for lunch for 2. 
- ristorante pizzeria de la mare.  Omg amazing Italian food and stunning views of the ocean for jaime birthday dinner.    https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g189112-d13335050-r848308363-Ristorante_Pizzeria_La_Terrazza_Del_Mare-Albufeira_Faro_District_Algarve.html 
- stew and more. 4 min walk from our hotel and highly rated on TripAdvisor.  My review here.  https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g189112-d10033463-r847713758-Stews_More-Albufeira_Faro_District_Algarve.html
- Cuica terrace lounge for drinks was also amazing.  Great dj music and stunning view of the sea.  Lovely fruity drinks with gin and rum.  

We also ate at Vivaldo's. Great view and appetizers.  The fish and shrimp kebab was a bit dry though.  Great presentation though 

We ate at Caliptos bar for lunch as well. Super cheap. 6 euros for a veggie breakfast of eggs hash brown etc and a great chicken salad for 8 euros.
