A Conceited Restaurant

A conceited restaurant

After the health clinic visit in Cascais
We had lunch at a restaurant nearby
Where the outdoor market is
It was overpriced and pretentious
The food, so and so.
Had a glass of wine it was undrinkable 
Had a cold bottle of water instead.
There are many proper small restaurants
In Cascais, they appear not to be
Near the centre. 
A few days ago, near the post office, we had 
Splendid meal and it was reasonably priced 
With not too many tables and people I have
 fear of crowds this inane nattering about
Nothing, just meaningless noise.
