A Cozinha

This could be the icing on the cake during your visit to this beautiful city, with its medieval centre declared a World Heritage Site. The restaurant, in an unassuming building in the historic centre, features a charming dining room from which you can see the kitchen, separated by a glass wall. Chef António Loureiro, always loyal to the idea that “cooking is also about storytelling”, serves up his Equilíbrio (“Balance”) tasting menu (available in 6 or 9 courses) and a small menu with dishes taken from it, such as his excellent, tender and tasty veal with cauliflower. The balanced concept, brimming with sensitivity and modern touches yet grounded in a solid traditional foundation, emphasises a deep respect for raw ingredients. Curious details? On the upper floor, there’s a private dining room and... a small terrace filled with aromatic plants!
