On the corner of Camões square, where tram 28 rattles past, you notice the people leaning on the counter before the sign. The bifana, thin pork marinated in garlic and wine and stuffed into a roll with its juices, is basically the whole point. Add mustard, a small draught or an espresso, and lunch is done in five minutes. Anthony Bourdain's visit put it on tourist maps, but locals still drift in from breakfast on. A QR code on the table pulls up an English menu.
