The Michelin Guide's review
A fine-dining restaurant adjoining Zunzum Gastrobar, housed in a glass-fronted building next to Lisbon Cruise Terminal.The contemporary interior impresses with its large central open kitchen, surrounded by a counter where diners can watch the chefs at work throughout their meal. A few tables are also dotted around the dining room. Chef Marlene Vieira and her team express their distinctive approach through two tasting menus of 9 or 12 courses, drawing on Portuguese tradition and flavours from across the country. These include squid from the Azores with feijoada bean stew and Portuguese chouriço sausage – the chef's signature dish – and pink prawns from the Algarve, served with cornbread made to her grandmother's old recipe. A distinctive touch? When the meat course arrives, diners are presented with a selection of handcrafted knives with different handles and blades, allowing them to choose the one they would like to use.
