This is a place for meetings and synergies, under the leadership of CHEF CRISTIANO ISHI. In the land of fire, we combine products from the countryside with those from the sea, and cooked them in a wood-fired oven, in a Josper or naturally in ovens dug out over the hot springs.. From the meats that come to us from local producers, to the fish from the auction and the freshest greens, we are passionate about the flavours of the Azores – genuine and rustic, cooked traditionally or in a more contemporary way. Take the opportunity, too, to visit our Lobby Market and buy some of the products and utensils used at the À TERRA restaurant, or other local delicacies and items.

Here we tell stories about this place, about the Algarve and about the Ria that the ancient people decided to call formosa (beautiful) for obvious reasons. Here we use your plate as a blank page, the kitchenware as pencils and pens and the ingredients as natural dyes. He writes stories, describing the saltiness of this land, the breeze that travelled from somewhere until it hits us, the colour of the oranges, the dance of the octopus, the patience of the oysters in the sunshine on a sandbank between two ocean inlets. And he writes about the local people, about their hands, wet from pulling in the fishing nets, their skin tanned by the sun as they harvest the earth's bounty.
Some warmer and some fresher; read these stories and take them home with you, in your MEMORIES.
