Marlene,

Portugal Shines with Eight New One-Star Restaurants

"A One MICHELIN Star restaurant near Lisbon Cruise Terminal known for its modern setting and tasting menus." - The MICHELIN Guide

"A haute cuisine-style restaurant adjacent to Zunzum Gastrobar, located in a glass-fronted building next to the Lisbon Cruise Terminal (a bonus for parking, with a huge public car park available). The restaurant, with a contemporary feel, surprises visitors with a large open central kitchen, surrounded by a counter that allows you to watch the chefs at work at all times. Chef Marlene Vieira, together with her team, presents a signature approach based on two tasting menus (9 or 12 courses) referencing both Portuguese tradition (we loved her refined blue lobster, green curry and seaweed) and flavours from other latitudes, always accompanying the dishes with cornbread following her grandmother’s old recipe. A curious detail? If you order a meat option, you are presented with a selection of handcrafted knives, with different handles and hand-sharpened blades, from which you can choose." - Michelin Inspector
