Tomar is where you will find one of the last bastions of the Knight's Templar and keep your camera at the ready. The ancient buildings are marvelous and stunning. We then ate at the most quaint little restaurant we've ever been to. Almost our entire tour group ended up there, 2 x 2, 4 & 6. The owner had to send her daughter out to the market 3 times as it wasn't high season and they were pleasantly surprised to have almost all of our group of 26. There is a picture of the restaurant's card below. You can find plenty of pictures of Tomar on the net. The food at this little restaurant was scrumptious and the owner insisted that we all share a shot of Portuguese Ginja, a home brew of cherry brandy that you will no doubt come to taste even if you don't leave the airport. She somehow thought that we had brought everyone in, which, as each group passed and they saw familiar faces and came in, was not entirely right or wrong. 5* for the little wine bar that could!
