Honest verdict on Francesinha — good but not exceptional

Francesinha here was solidly made — bright with olive oil and garlic without anything to complain about. bacalhau salt cod was present and handled reasonably. But something was missing from the depth that this dish should have.

pastéis de nata originated in Belém monastery in the 18th century. The a pastelaria morning coffee atmosphere was pleasant enough. Sagres beer was available and a good suggestion. For a reliable version of Francesinha this works. For an exceptional one, I'd keep looking. Three stars.
