Mateus nous a accueillis avec son frère jumeau Marcus dans la salle de réception de l'hôtel Ambiente à Lisbonne.
Tout d'abord, ce fut une expérience visuelle et auditive : une... read more décoration soignée et créative,une musique d'ambiance agréable,ensuite une rencontre avec un hôte passionné par son travail de cuisinier ,enfin des découvertes gustatives.
Mateus a pris le temps de nous présenter tous les plats en nous expliquant leur composition et leur préparation ( en français s'il vous plaît) son frère Marcus ,au service, a été attentionné.
Des plats traditionnels portugais revisités par le chef Mateus
comme il le dit lui même, "c'est une cuisine réconfortante inspirée par ma grand-mère ".
Pour moi qui ne bois pas d'alcool, ce fût un bonheur ! Un apéritif soft délicieux et un jus de fruits frais, le tout servi dans de beaux verres ,les restaurateurs français devraient prendre des leçons...😊
Je recommande vivement cette expérience culinaire et culturelle.

Je ne recommande pas:
Cette expérience n'a malheureusement pas été à la hauteur de mes attentes. Bien que le chef ait été très gentil et ait bien expliqué les plats,... read more l'ambiance portugaise tant vantée n'était pas au rendez-vous. Il y avait un manque de cohésion pendant le repas (0 discussions, débats, présentation..) Le serveur ne semblait pas très familier avec les coutumes du service, ce que je peux comprendre, mais j'aurais espéré un peu plus d'animation (un minimum)comme on peut le voir chez vos homologues sur Airbnb. De plus, nous sommes partis seulement deux minutes après avoir fini notre dessert, et nous n'étions pas les seuls à le faire. Personnellement, je n'ai pas trouvé le repas sensationnel, bien que ma copine l'ait apprécié.
En tant que professionnel de la restauration et amateur d'expériences gastronomiques, je suis déçu.
Il faut voir la chose du bon coté (l’axe d’amélioration est présent) je réessaierai si les avis changent

If you're looking for a fine dining experience with an excellent young local chef, this is a fantastic find. The food was incredible. Expect more of a restaurant vibe from... read more the hosts, and lots of time to spend with new friends at the table. Thoughtful customizations for dietary needs, too, so fear not if you're vegan, GF, or veg.
