Portofino has what they call sleek shops, and it reeks of new money. There are a few pizzeries, bars, and grocery shops mixed in with Portofino's jewelry shops, art galleries, and houte courture boutiques. We didn't walk inside any shops, except for one small art gallerie. Only because they seemed friendly and acted like they wanted people to enter. I don't usually shop at Hermes, so I just passed those shops right up and headed for the gelato place.
