Don't knock the Chinese shops. Last Xmas we came over to spend it with our family, arriving on Xmas Eve. One of the presents we had got them was a photo in a large frame and when we unpacked it the glass had broken. At around 7pm on Xmas Eve, we went to the shop on the out road and got a replacement.

Who's knocking them? I just wish there were as many good chinese restaurants in the Algarve.
Though I have to say we've got two chinese shops in Algoz & neither of them are very good, full of dodgy gear & what looks like highy inflammable clothing.

I'm not surprised - this place was unfathomanly signposted and impossible to find!

That's good to hear Sandy, I thought it was just me ... I drove around for about a half hour trying to find that place and gave up in the end and went home ..
