At the table

Home cooking, regional produce and a table laid outdoors. You eat slowly, the way you do in the country.

No fixed menu

There is no buffet. There is what is cooking that day.

The kitchen works with produce from the region and from our own vegetable garden, with whatever the season gives. That is why we publish no menu: what is served depends on the day, on the market and on who is at the table. Tell us how many you are and what you like — we take care of the rest.

Ways to sit at the table

Arranged when you arrive, or the day before, depending on what you feel like.

Before you come

Tell us what you like to eat.

Dietary restrictions, a large group, something to celebrate — all of it is easier if we know in advance.

Where you eat

Under the porch, with the fields all around.

When the weather allows — and in the Ribatejo it nearly always does — the tables go outside and become one. There is room for a whole group: a big family, friends who all came at once. More people than there are chairs, and nobody in a hurry to get up.
