Tuna belly “à lagareiro”, pepper and mirin, round green beans with anchovy butter and pickled lemon. The expression "à lagareiro" means an individual who works in a olive press, producing olive oil. It is used in this context due to the abundant amount of olive oil that is used in the recipe.

Tuna belly, "Vilhão" sauce, mussels and sweet potatoes

Tuna samosa, mango and mustard chutney, orange, coriander and chilli

Smoked sole, Alcobaça apple, monkfish liver, beet and pistachio

Abbot of Priscos pudding is a typical Portuguese dessert, a rich crème caramel pudding created by Father Manuel Joaquim Machado Rebelo, the Abbot of Priscos, in the 19th century. The pudding is unique in that it contains bacon and a very large amount of egg yolks. In this recipie we use muxama instead of bacon.
