Essentials
There's a small mini market in Povoa de Penafirme where you can get the basic's.
Here you also find bakeries, small cafés and other basics.
There is also a woman who makes great bread here, ask the locals how to get to her house, it is not far from the mini market. She only bakes on Saturdays, and the corn bread is the best we've ever had.
