Fish & Ships Review | Independence of the SeasFish & Ships on Royal Caribbean is a complimentary dining option offering, well.. you guessed it fish and chips!  Fish & Ships on Embarkation Day ❤︎ Independence of the Seas Review Is Fish & Ships open on Embarkation Day?Yes. Fish & Ships was open on embarkation day during our 4-night cruise and I recommend grabbing a bite here on day one if you want to avoid a busy windjammer buffet. Fish & Ships Menu | Independence of the SeasIn the past, Fish & Ships was a paid casual dining option, but for the last few years it has been free, aside from an up-charge for a Fried Lobster Tail basket & chips (fries) at $12. I'd like to try the fried lobster tail basket next time and let you know if it's worth the splurge ;)  Fish and Ships menu on Independence of the Seas What's on the menu at Fish & Ships?For free, you can enjoy:

How to make a mimosa
I think a mimosa is technically champagne and orange juice, but lots of folks use prosecco and even more use any affordable and tasty sparkling wine they have access to. :) That's us!
Mimosa: Sparkling wine first or juice first?
So in my head, I thought if you pour juice on top of the sparkling wine, doesn't that collapse some of the bubbles? Maybe, idk, but apparently the 'right' way is to pour the sparkling wine in first and then top with orange juice.
Mimosa Step One: Pour 1/2 or 2/3 Sparkling Wine, Prosecco, or Champagne
What is the right ratio of wine to juice for a mimosa?
Surprise, surprise, there are different schools of thought on this also. Some say 50:50, others say 2/3 sparkling wine/champagne to 1/3 orange juice. I say do whatever tastes great to you!
Want mostly orange juice with a bit of fizz? Go for it.
Want mostly champagne with a bit of OJ? Go for it!
This is a low stress, easy-to-make, fun drink for a celebration. It's a special occasion - enjoy it!

This is a low stress, easy-to-make, fun drink for a celebration. It's a special occasion - enjoy it!
Mimosa Step Two: Top with Orange Juice!
PS. When in Portugal, if you can, please do try the fresh orange juice machines in grocery stores. The orange juice is delicious and as fresh as can be because you toss the oranges in yourself!
If you're going for juice from the juice isle, look specifically for the "laranja do algarve" labels as these orange juices feature the best oranges in Portugal - the ones from the beautiful, sunny Algarve. ;)
Pancake Anniversary Brunch: Done!
It was a lovely little brunch with blueberry pancakes, mimosas, espressos, air fryer eggs, and duchess potatoes.

Looking For A Drink With a Tangy, Tropical Twist? | Compal Manga, Maracuja, Limao Juice Review
7/20/2025
Compal Manga, Maracujá, Limão Sumo
| We recently tried Compal's mango, passionfruit and lemon juice and I've got to say it's a good one. Mango nectar can be quite thick and viscous as well as very sweet. On the other hand passion fruit is usually a light and tart juice. That makes the combination of mango and passionfruit a beautiful pairing! Great to drink on its own, chilled, or as the base of a fruit smoothie (loved it with frozen blueberries) this is a fun juice blend to try while you are in Portugal. Looking for an easy cocktail idea?We recently had an anniversary mimosa brunch and I think this mango-passionfruit juice would make a fun twist on a classic mimosa. Swap out the traditional orange juice for this and see what you think! :) |  Compal Sumo de Manga, Maracuja, Limão | Mango, Passionfruit, Lemon Juice |
What is Compal Anyway?
Compal is a brand-name in Portugal with a reputation for high quality juices and nectars. You can find it in major grocery stores in Portugal such as Continente, Auchan, and Pingo Doce as well as discount grocery stores like Lidl and Aldi Portugal.

Continente Magnificos Pipoca e Caramelo Ice Cream Review - Magnum Double Star Chaser Dupe?
7/20/2025
I'll never forget the first time I had a Magnum Double Star Chaser Ice Cream.
It was a hot summer day in the Algarve, volunteering near a Continente. A young Ukranian man we had recently met was crossing the street toward us. He thought we'd like an ice cream on such a hot day. :)
Not only did that random act of kindness totally make our day, he unknowingly picked one of the most delicious ice creams I had ever had - popcorn and caramel.
Fast forward a couple years and I saw this Continente version and had to try it.

Continente Magníficos Pipoca e Caramelo Ice Cream Review
If you're looking for a novelty ice cream on a stick flavor this summer and you see a box of pipoca e caramelo ice cream at Continente, go ahead and grab it. Especially if you're a salty/sweet combo lover!
This ice cream is a delight with the sweet/salty contrast and the textural interest of the popcorn, chocolate shell, and the caramel ribbons.
Is it an exact dupe for the Magnum Double Star Chaser? I'd say no, not quite, but it's close. The Double Star Chaser has a very pronounced caramel layer inside the chocolate outer shell, offering a different intensity. (See photos from our Lagos Zoo Visit where I indulged in the double star chaser for a second time - coming soon)
Still, this is a solid product from Continente. :)

Americans Try Super Spicy Korean Ramen Noodles
There's a lot of buzz online about Korean instant ramen brand Nongshim's Shin Red Super Spicy Ramen (Ramyun or Ramyeon). We were surprised to see these at Lidl in Portugal and had to pick up a couple packages to try.
Can Americans handle Shin Red level spicy? Time will tell..

Shin Red Flavor Packets
Shin Red Super Spicy Ramen has two flavor packages inside, in addition to the dried ramen noodle. One has "flakes" (tiny dehydrated veggies) and the other is the soup base.

How To Make Shin Red Super Spicy Ramen Noodles - Cook Along!
Making Shin Red noodles is easy.
1. Boil 550 ml of water
Step 1: Boil 550 ml water
2. Add dried ramen noodles
Drop in the dried ramen noodle disc. Up to you if you like to break it up before boiling. I did not.
Step 2: Add dried noodles
3. Add the flakes and soup base
Add both flavor packets in now.
Step 3: Add soup base and flakes
What's In Shin Red Flakes Pouch?
This packet of dehydrated vegetables looks to include carrots, red chili pepper, green onion, and shiitake mushroom at minimum.
Mix everything together
Shin Red Spicy Soup Base
You can tell from the red color of the soup base that it's going to be really spicy already, can't you?!
Cook for 4.5 minutes and enjoy!
How long to cook Shin Red Ramen?
After adding all ingredients to 550ml boiling water, cook for 4.5 minutes according to package directions and then enjoy!
Best Korean Barbecue in Lisbon?
Ramen Noodles Without Soup
I used a pair of tongs to distribute most of the ramen noodles and divide them into two bowls. (We had made two packages in one pot)
Using a ladle to serve can be challenging because the noodles are so long and intertwined making the shape of a ladle generally impractical.

Shin Red Super Spicy Korean Instant Ramen Review
We love spicy food over here and a lot of times things labeled spicy aren't really that spicy in our opinion, I'm looking at you lidl gochujang paste!
But let me tell you right now, honestly this ramen is so so sooo spicy. They are not joking. One of us actively chose not to finish this spicy Korean ramen. Both of us felt that the spice level was too high for us to truly enjoy.
We love spice that allows you to still appreciate flavor, but when it hits the point that all you remember is heat, usually that's too much for our tastes.
Americans Try Shin Red Super Spicy Ramen!
While I personally would probably not repurchase Shin Red Super Spicy, we had a lot of fun trying it and I do think it's a fun taste test to do with your family or friends if they like spicy food.
Other than being too spicy, we felt like it was a nicer ramen product overall. The noodles have great texture and any time ramen has a packet of dehydrated veggies it feels, dare I say, upscale lol.
The Super Spicy version is not available in all markets readily, but you can see which Korean Ramen is available to try here!

How to cook Vitasia Frozen Chicken Wings

|  Cooking Instructions - Vitasia Chicken Wings |
How to cook frozen chicken wings in the air fryer
| Can you cook frozen chicken wings in the air fryer? Of course you can! We just used the convection oven temperature recommendation of 180C (~350F) and started checking them after 15 minutes. At that time we temped them using an instant read meat thermometer and flipped them over for a few more minutes. How many chicken wings fit in an air fryer? In our air fryer, 10 wings fit comfortably at a time. |  Chicken Wings in Air Fryer Basket |
Lidl Vitasia Asian Curry Chicken WIngs Review
| For an easy midweek meal or late night snack, frozen wings can be a great choice to get some protein in. Making them in the air fryer is easy and healthier than deep frying. Overall we thought these were good, but occasionally found 'weird bits' or broken bones which we didn't love. The curry flavor is nice to shake things up a bit. 10 wings is a decent amount, but not quite enough for 2 people. Maybe I could have crammed some more in, but I wanted to leave room for the air to circulate and get some color and crisp. Pro Tip: Cook one round of chicken wings in the air fryer, then after you plate them, toss a second round in. They'll be cooked right when you're wishing you had more! ;) |  Asia Curry Flavored Chicken Wing Dings |

Most known for the Palácio Nacional da Ajuda (National Palace of Ajuda), Ajuda is an often overlooked Lisbon neighborhood with fewer tourists and plenty of nice views.
Views from Ajuda at Night
Nestled between infamous Belém waterfront and Parque Florestal de Monsanto, a huge park full of trails and greenery right in the heart of Lisbon, Ajuda is low key with a combination of grit and charm, not to mention some surprisingly great restaurants.
In this article we will share 5 Ajuda restaurants we tried on this week in Lisbon trip as well as a few outliers just for fun. ;)
Tlaloc un rincón mexicano
One thing many Americans miss when they move to Portugal is actually Mexican food. Great tacos are not especially easy to find in Portugal.
At Tlaloc Un Rincon Mexicano you can scratch that itch with birria tacos, tinga tacos, horchata, and do not forget the tres leches cake.

Fiesta Restro And Snack Bar
Okay so this restaurant is not in Ajuda, it's in Benfica neighborhood and we hit it up after a medical appointment at Hospital da Luz in Amadora.
Hilariously, Fiesta Restro and Snack Bar is not at all a Mexican restaurant, but in fact a spot where you can enjoy Nepalese, Indian, and Portuguese food.
Don't skip the sparkling sangria, pani puri, and momos - they were highlights of this Lisbon trip!

Everest Curry & Sekuwa Corner
This was an Uber Eats order after a long convention day, so it came from the other side of Lisbon to our Ajuda airbnb. The restaurant was running a lot of BOGO offers, so we ended up with way too much food and it lasted for 2.5 meals!
We ordered Jeera rice, chicken stuffed naan, thai curry, and butter chicken. Everything was okay overall. The butter chicken was the best dish we ordered.

Pasteis de Belem
Belem is a nice walk from Ajuda and you can try two of the most famous Pastel de Nata establishments including Pasteis de Belem.

Manteigaria
Grab yourself another pastel de nata over at Manteigaria before walking back up to Ajuda. And I mean that very literally, it's an uphill climb and you're sure to burn off all the calories from the pastries so... win!

MoMo Express
If you're arriving into Lisbon or departing via Oriente Station, you'd be remiss if you skipped Momo Express food truck. Tasty Nepalese momos, flavorful samosas (go veggie for this one!) and chai of this caliber, you'll struggle to find outside of Asia.

When you're ready to give traditional Portuguese cuisine a try, consider Recanto do Ze when in Armacao de Pera, Algarve, Portugal.
Recanto do Zé - Portuguese Restaurant in Armação de Pera
Recanto do Ze has some great lunch specials "prato do dia" during the weekdays, but don't be afraid to stop in at dinner time for kind staff and delicious Portuguese food.
Prato do Dia
A typical prato do dia at Recanto do Zé includes a meat or fish main, a drink (including wine or beer), couvert (typically bread, olives etc), dessert, and a coffee for around 15 euro - clearly representing a great value for a quality meal!
Location:
Recanto do Zé Restaurant Address: Rua Dom Joao II lote 7, Armacao de Pera 8365-130 Portugal

Iberian Pork Secretos
I was floored when my plate came. The helping of pork was generous, well seasoned, and as tender as you'd expect a well-rendered fatty cut of pork to be.
In the word's of Levi "That's tenda!"
Iberian Black Pork | Algarve Food Blog
What are pork secretos? What cut is it?
Pork secretos are like a "secret" because they are a hidden boneless cut from behind the shoulder.
Pork secretos are like a "secret" because they are a hidden boneless cut from behind the shoulder.
This cut of is exclusive to Iberico pigs and it has incredible flavor because of the deep marbling combined with the lifestyle of the pigs - roaming around free range and filling up on tasty acorns.
Ahh.. now that's the life!
Porco Preto | Armacao de Pera Restaurant Guide
Along side the pork were the expected portuguese accompaniments - a simple salad with lettuce, onion, and tomatoes and a pile of french fries. :)
Francesinha
The Francesinha sandwich originated in Porto and it is a serious undertaking, as you can surely tell.
Francesinha | Recanto do Ze Pics
What is in a Francesinha?
Between layers of bread you will find almost every rich meat you can think of on a francesinha - ham, steak, sausage.
The Portuguese sandwich with every meat, topped with melted cheese, egg, and sauce - Francesinha
What is on top of a Francesinha?
Plenty of melted cheese and a fried egg adorn this sandwich, as well as a healthy ladle of piping hot beer-tomato sauce to keep everything sloppy enough to require silverware.
Batatas Fritas, aka French Fries | Portugal Food Blog
As if the hearty sandwich isn't enough, a side of fries is ready for you to mop up any leftover sauce - the Portuguese version of Italy's "fare la scarpetta" :)
Recanto do Zé Review
I really enjoyed my meal (that delicious black pork - porco preto) at Recanto do Ze. I hope to return for a prato do dia with friends some time.
The only bummer was that they did not accept credit cards despite their google listing indicating that they accepted them at the time we visited.
As a result, we had to do the awkward scramble to scrape together enough cash. So our pro tip would be to make sure you have cash on you ;)

The Waterdog is an institution in Armacao de Pera which is always busy and beloved by tourists and residents alike.
Enjoy the sunshine, saltwater air, and sip a cold one with friends as you take advantage of ample outdoor seating.
Or perhaps you prefer sitting at the back of the pub, on the cushioned bench, enjoying the buzzing atmosphere and live music.
The point is, you really can't go wrong here!

We've been to The Waterdog Pub twice, both times equally enjoying Friday's Fish and Chips special, but we'll have to make our way back to try Sunday Roast, Chilli con Carne, and a Steak Guiness pie.

Ice Cream With a View | Armacao de Pera Food Blog
After a leisurely stroll through Armacao de Pera with our parents, an ice cream cone seemed the perfect choice to end the outing on a sweet note.
We stopped in at N'ice Cream in Armacao de Pera. N'ice cream has several locations across central algarve including Albufeira, Portimao, and Armacao de Pera .
N'ice Cream Flavors
Wondering what ice cream flavors are popular in Portugal?
You'll find a combination of classic standbys like Chocolate, Coffee Ice Cream, and even Oreo Ice Cream.

Uniquely Portuguese Ice Cream Flavors
One fun thing about N'ice Cream in Algarve is they tend to have some uniquely Portuguese Ice Cream flavors.
Figo c/ Amêndoa Gelado (Fig and Almond)
For example, the Algarve is an agricultural region known for delicious juicy figs and bountiful crops of almonds. So a fig and almond ice cream is spot on!
Gelado com sabor Figo com amêndoa
Dom Rodrigo Ice Cream (Egg Yarn and Almond)
Dom Rodrigo is a traditional dessert from the Algarvian town of Lagos. It's made with "egg yarn"which sounds so weird, but it's egg yolks and sugar so think sweet and rich with the texture of thin coconut shreds.
Gelado com sabor Dom Rodrigo
In addition to these ice cream flavors you can find Pastel de Nata (famous custard tart of Portugal), and Perna de Pau. (Meaning wooden leg in Portuguese).
Perna de Pau is an ice cream on a stick you can buy in grocery stores across Portugal featuring a pirate on the package with, you guessed it, a wooden leg. It's vanilla ice cream with stripes of strawberry 'jelly' and the outside is dipped in chocolate.
