OMA

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 Chawanmushi with tuna and dashi. It then heads to Portugal, featuring National beef sirloin with roasted aubergine, bomba rice and wild mushrooms, and concludes in the Azores, with a dessert of pineapple, pink peppercorns and mascarpone.
