NY Times January 30, 2011 - 36 hours Lisbon
 
In case anyone is interested.
I like #7 "Hit the Tagus" Taking the ferry to to Cacilhas across the river and walking to a restaurant, Atira Te Ao Rio, for a glass of white port while enjoying the sunset over the citscape of Lisbon. I'm definitely doing that - but I wonder how's the food?

Try Ponto Final, got the views and it's real Portuguese food. But lately it got popular so reservation is not a bad idea

We ate at Porto Final on our second trip. The food is very good and the view is great looking toward Lisbon.

Thanks for the links. Porto Final it is....what a perfect place to have drinks and dinner.

Although it's nearby port it's called "Ponto Final" - not Porto. Literally it means "Final Pint" or "End of the Road". If you are interested check out video by João Pedro Rodrigues's "Lisbon My City" http://www.guardian.co.uk/travel/vid...-my-city-guide Ferry and restaurant are staring at about 4:30 min in to the video.
