RESTAURANT "A GALE"

In Portugal the health issue has not been adressed nearly as much as you would have expected and it won´t be for a long time. Smokers still enjoy a different status than in most northern cultures.

Lets not forget, that we are talking about Portugal, not England - mentalities differ - considerably:
-I smoke because I can.
-Clothes and hair can be washed, so stop sobbing about it.
-You don´t like it, go elsewhere.
-Stop moaning and have a cigarette.
-(previous comment) I dont mind you eating while I smoke

At the end of the day, passive or active smoke is just another item on the loooooooong list of things that you will die from....sooner or later.

enough already - this discussion belongs elsewhere. Everytime I see "A Gale" in the new posts I think there will be an item about this very nice restaurant - but its only more pro and con smoking. I am not going to wade into this highly emotional issue, but can you imagine A Gale having a smoking and non-smoking section? No matter where you sit, you'll have smoke it's just too tiny and cramped. And that goes for most Restaurants in Carvoeiro. So go light up somewhere else.

Heini; I fully agree with you

(Sorry to all of you, but I'm a smoker!)
