Looks like it could also be a cafe in Brazil from the colors. It's a lovely place, whereever it is! :)

É a cafeteria mais antiga de Portugal. Gostei de conhecer a fachada.

The number 1782 sure impresses the heck out of me JM, that's the one thing I miss in this new city of Perth.

That jolt of yellow with the dark red and green is a winner!

Terrific shot for the day, JM! I, too, am amazed at a restaurant founded in 1782 and still operating!! Its places like this that made Europe so fascinating for me when I lived there!! Hope your week is going well!

great colors to accompany those numbers!

Wayne said...

Wow, bold colors, I love how they pop!

Lois said...

They must have good food if they have managed to be in business that long! I like the reflections in the door windows.

Florida wasn't even a state in 1782. Still belonged to Spain as I recall. I mean I wasn't here, then, but that's what I've been told.

Love the colors here. Looks like an interesting place. Hopefully the food is not from 1782. :-)

Nice shot - great colors and composition. And what a wonder to all of us in the "New World" to try to image anything that's been around so long!
