random favorites: tinned fish.

think way beyond tuna, this cultural tradition tastes like summers abroad, packaged in its own portable and quite stylish tin.

my dear friends, while i’m well aware this is not a food blog, there’s something delicious i’ve been wanting to share with you. so please beg my pardon while i briefly delve into the world of gastronomy — once upon a time in portugal, i fell in love with tinned fish. i stuffed as many tins into my suitcase as i could after clearing out a vida portuguesa, one of my favorite boutique shops in lisbon. their inventory of tinned fish is extensive, and in all honesty, at the time, i was mainly into the chic packaging and would display them proudly in my kitchen for all to ooh and aah.
