At Palacete Severo, a luxurious boutique hotel surrounded by gardens and reminiscent of an art gallery (its French owners are art dealers), the renowned chef Tiago Bonito undertakes his most personal project. The space includes a bar area where aperitifs are served before moving to the table, an elegant dining room adorned with fine contemporary works beneath a stunning coffered ceiling, and an additional room used for private dining. The proposal, distinctly gastronomic in nature, revolves around a tasting menu entitled Lés a Lés, from which guests may choose 9 or 14 moments from a list of dishes. Overall, the chef champions author-driven cuisine that brings his memories to light (as in the dessert Memórias de infância - Childhood Memories) and invites us on a journey through Portugal’s traditional flavours (Pão e brioche com fermento natural (sourdough bread and brioche), Pescada de anzol (line-caught hake), Novilho nacional (Portuguese beef)…), always viewed through a contemporary lens, with refined textures and excellent broths.
