- João Wengorovius added a new meal Dinner at Ofício at Ofício - Tasco Atípico
I returned to @oficiolisboa with a secret desire to once again try a stupidly simple but delicious dish called "Pleurotus with chicken caramel".
I ended up eating that one and trying nine others plus a dessert...

There's something about @hugo_candeias project, starting with its descriptive - atypical tavern - that tries to resolve the countless contradictions, paradoxes and expectations of those who enter a restaurant.
We want comfort and predictability but also surprise, we expect some sophistication and creativity but we revere the rustic and the simple, we look for novelty but we cosy up to tradition.
Sometimes we have little appetite, sometimes we're starving, and in any case we want to leave feeling satiated. But we hate feeling heavy when we leave.
"Maybe a fingerfood will suffice, maybe some cold dishes, maybe some small hot dishes to share." Or "One main course, but a well-served portion"...
At Ofício you'll find a bit of all that, well sorted. A Bib Gourmand 2024 in Lisbon's Chiado neighbourhood, with a well thought-out a la carte menu. With creativity and good technique but no ostentation.
Of course, if you're like me and end up trying almost everything, you can too.

@arkherestaurante keeps getting better and better with its imaginative and delicious plant-based cuisine, genuine hospitality and handpicked wines.
The duo behind it, @joaord.alves (in the kitchen) and @chavarroalejo (front of house and wines), complement each other’s skills and talents wonderfully, making this one... More

The duo behind it, @joaord.alves (in the kitchen) and @chavarroalejo (front of house and wines), complement each other’s skills and talents wonderfully, making this one of the most sought-after tables in Lisbon whenever vegetable-based cuisine comes to mind (or just a great restaurant, for that matter).
One of my favorites: Pleurotus mushroom, activated charcoal, broccoli and broccoli pesto, sauce of carrot, orange, and turmeric. Less

- João Wengorovius added a new meal Dinner at Refúgio da Roca - Restaurante at Refúgio da Roca
Lulinhas (baby squid heads) à Refúgio.
I keep coming back for this dish, which was created by Carlos’s father, António, in this cosy traditional restaurant that celebrated its 50th anniversary last December - a remarkable achievement.
