Located close to Tavira’s old Moorish castle, this restaurant was created out of a heartfelt homage to the history of this town with its 37 churches. Over the years, however, it has also proved that the cuisine, ingredients and flavours on offer here are just as important as its history.
The attentive married couple in charge, Cláudia Abrantes (sommelier and front-of-house) and her chef-husband Luís Brito, at the helm in the kitchen, are extremely committed to creating the perfect experience. The constant aim of the cuisine is to find a balance between vegetables and fish and seafood, presented on four enticing tasting menus: an “executive” menu only available at lunchtime, plus three others (Between Moments, The Journey of Flavour, and The Whole Trip) that include blue lobster, beef from the Trás-os Montes region etc. The restaurant also boasts two attractive terrace-esplanades overlooking the town – one on the same floor for menu-based dining, the other, upstairs, for appetisers.
