Morgado do Quintão

We booked the cooking workshop with chef Margarida which includes - shopping for ingredients at the market, which was very small and had little produce on offer, for example no fish. Margarida told us some nice things and it was oké but not very special The cooking workshop itself was very disappointing; the only things I had to do was chop 3 tomatoes and one pepper, and in the end I helped to clean some shrimps. My friends chopped some other veggies and one fried some fritters. The other helped to prepare a simple main dish and put some spices into a carrot salad. We are quite accomplished cooks and expected to cook all the dishes of the 3 course meal and learn new techniques and recipes. The technical part was done by Margaride herself or was already prepared ahead. The carrots were cooked, the batter for the fritters prepared etc. We really feel we didn’t learn any new skills and we didn’t even get a pdf with recipes as is descibed on the website. We got the recipes later after asking. The lunch itself was pleasant but we were surprised that certain dishes as the bean salad and the desert were prepared for us and we didn’t get to cook this ourself. The best thing of this experience is that lunch is served under this very impressive and beatiful 2000 years old olive tree. It felt like the kitchen was very busy with a different cook preparing a farmers lunch for a group of 20 American guests. And there was little space and time to provide us with the attention and tasks you may expect when paying a whopping 150 euros per person! Comparing this with the guests who got the farmers lunch for 60 euros per person who got more food and a tour of the property extra, we would advice you to choose this farmers lunch as it is much better value for money. The cooking workshop is very simple and you learn no skills, just to prepare a small part of the very simple recipes. Definitely not worth the 150 Euro per person!

This is a review for the lunch with wine paring from the vineyard. The location is wonderful. The wines were superb, especially the white and rosé. The food was delicious Portugese food and the tour of the vineyard was a great ending to a wonderful afternoon. We’ll definitely be back!

Our outing at Farmer's Table was wonderful. The setting is so charming. Dining under the olive tree and the wonderful food and wine pairings were lovely. The experience was great. I have already recommended it to friends! We did not use the hotel.

Joined the Farmers Table lunchtime meal. It was set so beautifully, the food rustic and delicious. Excellent wine served with it. Short tour around the grounds which was great. Ended up staying for a couple of bottles of wine afterwards with people we met during lunch. Would recommend and would go back! Thank you to the team!

We joined the Farmer’s Table and it was lovely. Setting under a 2000 yr old olive tree among the vineyards was beautiful. Food was very good and the wine was delicious. We ended up buying many bottles of their wine. I would highly recommend this

We did the wine tasting and had a great time! The place is absolutely beautiful and Pascal, our host for the tasting, was fun and explained the wines so well. We stayed in the grounds after the tasting to soak in the beauty of the place. We had such a pleasant time. I would definitely recommend

My wife and I had the communal table lunch experience, we did not stay overnight. The food seemed authentic and was delicious. The hostess was knowledgeable about the wine and the brief tour around the grounds was informative though note that the winery itself was under construction.

We had a wonderful lunch experience !! The setting under the olive tree was just magical and the food and wine amazing. From the warm welcome to the lunch service, to the visit of the vineyard, Pascal made this afternoon unforgettable. Our 2 kids also loved the food and the grounds.
