A contemporary styled gourmet delicatessen stocked full of traditional Portuguese delicacies, Menina Sardinha literally means "Sardine Girl" but it's also a term of endearment ¬and refers to a young with a freckly face. Sardines are among the foodstuffs for sale here, tinned and wrapped in attractive retro packaging. But there's plenty more to temp the shopper looking for a bit of Portugal to take home with them, items such as cakes, puddings, biscuits, chocolates, olive oil and a great selection of wines, including port wine. Everything here has won an award for either its flavour or the ingredients used, recognition for the originality of the product.
