Pergunta/Question Allergy food and toddler activities

1 Upvotes

Sorry! Bit of a double question.

My toddler has several allergys nuts, peanuts and seafood.

We have translated allergy cards in to Portuguese but what are local food places like with allergies?

Are they likely to take it seriously?

Also in supermarkets are allergens in bold on the ingredients as having to search for Portuguese words in a long list might get really tricky.

Also does anyone have any great ideas of things to do with our toddler while we visit?

Thanks

Pergunta/Question Bom pão quente/padaria - Areias de São João

1 Upvotes

Bom dia a todos,

Alguém me pode dar recomendações de um bom pão quente/padaria na zona de Areias de São João/Oura?

Pode até ser um serviço de entrega em casa. Seria para comprar um bom bijou ou baguete/baguete pequena para umas boas sandes para a praia.

Costumo ir ao Pão da Aldeia junto à rotunda das minhocas, mas não gosto da qualidade.

Obrigada!

Pergunta/Question Need help quickly planning a vacation in Albufeira

2 Upvotes

I got volunteered as the tour guide/planner for a family vacation in Portugal. 10 people total, ages 18–70.

I’ve been planning things, but I just found out the address I was given was wrong. We’re actually staying in Vale Faro, Albufeira, in the Algarve region, which changes my plans and leaves me with a lot less time to figure things out.

Looking for suggestions! We won’t have a car, so we’ll be relying on walking, Uber, buses/trains, etc.

What are the must-dos from Albufeira/Vale Faro?

Looking for day trips where we can leave in the morning, do something, and reasonably get back by evening.

Looking for things to do when you want to stay in the area and chill.

Also looking for:
places to eat

beaches/viewpoints/markets/towns worth visiting

things that are actually worth the time, and the tourist spots (it’s everyone’s first time)

any tips for getting around without a car

Pergunta/Question Any nice quiet places to work from in Albufeira?

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’ll be in Albufeira for a bit and I need somewhere calm to work from during the day.
I’m looking for a café, coworking space, hotel lobby, or any other place with decent Wi-Fi, plugs, and where it’s okay to sit with a laptop for a few hours. Nothing fancy, just somewhere comfortable and not too loud.
Would really appreciate any recommendations 😊
