Farewell Lunch

Today, after our customary four mile morning walk, fourteen of us got together for lunch. We typically get together for lunch once a month at the Sporting Club Lisboa hall in San Jose, CA.

Lunch was great. The meal today was " Carne de Porco  a Alentejana" also known as Portuguese Style Pork And Clams. It consists of chunks of pork, clams, and potatoes. This is how it looked like...

...and it tasted even better. The food was accompanied with an adequate amount of white and red wine, both from Portugal.

Here are the guys going at it:

Finally, here is a short video clip:


Tomorrow I may have to walk twelve miles to burn off this meal.
I'll keep you posted...
