NOT IN A TIN, NOT FRESH BUT PORCELAIN MADE


June brings the ideal time to eat grilled sardines which in the past were often sold from baskets that were carried on the head of female fishmongers who walked up and down the hilly streets of Lisbon. Yesterday I happened to see a partial revival of such iconic scenes of the city. These sardines were on display at a shop of  Vista Alegre, Portugal's most prestigious porcelain factory that was created in the 19th century. 

~~ Have a nice day ~~
