"There are places in the world that, because of their location, exert a special power of attraction and this is definitely the case with Antiqvvm, situated in a leafy park in the centre of Porto, next to the Museu Romântico. This sensation is enhanced by its pleasant garden boasting idyllic views of the banks of the Douro!In its elegant dining rooms, tastefully embellished with classic and contemporary decorative detail, chef Vítor Matos has a fondness for creative seasonal cuisine that places huge emphasis on his ingredients, combining these in a way that aims to enhance the main component of each dish (we particularly enjoyed the blue lobster with Moqueca, and the Silken & Smooth Tofu Mount Fuji, with chilli, citrus fruit, mango and curry). In his own words, the chef, who finds inspiration from his surroundings, “is continually striving to promote the values of cuisine that is cultural, natural, evolving, social and artistic”. He offers just two tasting menus: Sensory Moments (the Imperial Anjou Pigeon was our favourite dish) and Organic (vegetarian)." - Michelin Inspector
