The Rough formula is well know - and it works! There is enough information in the book for a short stay - and some candid opinions! As usual a multitude of eating and drinking places are recommended - a pleasant task for the authors?
I read this on the plane to Lisbon. It was a very good introduction to the city. The cafe and restaurant recommendations were all excellent. The guide and maps were clear and easy to manage.
