the best shellfish in all algerve is made in a tıny little restaurant called "casinha do petisco".
it's located in the old part of lagos and looks like a little crappy snackbar but the owner louis has a golden touch with his food.
ask the locals for the adress.
most people know him because he's so damn good.
the restaurant is just around the corner from "whytes bar".

i haven't been to lagos for a while myself so i don't know about the chicken place.

i used to live in lagos myself in 1999 and 2000.
i worked down the marina with the boat excursions.
we might even have met back then :O)

i used to be responsıble for the sale of about half the boat trips leaving lagos.
i worked on the avenida for 2 summer seasons.
i worked with paolo santos and the big boats via sagres and via lagos, plus a few other boats.

i guess i made myself most famous for dating his daughter and having the biggest sh!t fight with him after we broke up in the middle of the avenida :O)
