At "Da alma para a mesa," Chef Luís Moreira and Ana Silveira serve a rich culinary journey blending local ingredients and Asian inspirations in a cozy yet vibrant Porto setting.
"This establishment is run by Chef Luís Moreira and his partner, Ana Silveira, who recently left a small village to venture into urban life in Porto — and there is no doubt they have been warmly welcomed. They both aim to share their experiences in the different cities where they have lived, including Germany (hence the name of the restaurant, meaning “grandmother” in German). The chef offers a style of cooking that blends local produce with modern techniques, imparting a personal flair. Here, a journey of flavours is guaranteed, beginning with Asia (a destination the chef hopes to explore) via one of the appetisers: a cone filled with tuna and wasabi ice cream. It then heads to Portugal, featuring Iberian pork served with figs, and concludes in the Azores, with a dessert of pineapple, pink peppercorns and passion fruit." - Michelin Inspector
