Let this be a YUUUUUGE warning about buying food from street vendors in other countries. I thought it would be okay because I had just a small piece of pineapple and strawberry but within 15 seconds of swallowing them, it was like a fuse had been lit in my stomach. Oddly, though, my wife was unaffected even though she ate way more of the fruit than I did.

Have they repaired all the damage from the earthquake?

I could eat a half dozen Pasteis de Belém. I loved Lisbon but Aveiro and Porto were awesome.

I see this warning in most countries, but some people like to tempt fate.
