The restaurant A Ver Tavira, by chef Luís Brito, distinguished with a Michelin star, presents new menus for the summer, in which there is no shortage of fresh and traditional flavors of Algarve cuisine.
The menu features three options that can be paired with a selection of wines and cheeses.
“Toda a Viagem” is the first option and consists of ten dishes, prepared especially for the summer menu. The experience begins with the “Do Tempo” dish, which combines aubergine, artichoke, wild orange and hazelnut. “Fumado e Fresco” is the name given to the second dish, which combines sarrajão, green apple and fried corn. For seafood lovers, there is the “Sustainability” dish with shrimp momo, green mango and horseradish.
Then, “O diving” features line fish accompanied with garlic potatoes, sauce and cockles. The traditional is also not lacking in this experience with the “Crayfish and Rice”, which combines crayfish and rice with the unmistakable flavor of caviar.
The dish “As Minhas Roots” invites you on a journey through the history of chef Luís Brito, through the traditional cod with migas and green broth. “A Vazia de Trás-os-Montes” presents “Vazia de rubi Gallega”, celery, asparagus and jus. “What Stayed” is a dish that mixes the characteristic Arabic flavor of “Ras el hanout” with yogurt and raisins.
For lovers of sweet flavors there is also the dish “From São Tomé to the Algarve” which combines the famous São Tomé chocolate with fig tree milk custard. To conclude this summer's journey, chef Luís Brito presents Algarve morgado, pomelo and Szechuan in a dance of flavors
titled "The Traditional".
For those who enjoy lighter meals during hot weather, but who cannot say no to a tasting menu, A Ver Tavira and chef Luís Brito prepare the menus “A Viagem do Sabor” and “Entre Momentos”. The menus consist of seven and five dishes, respectively.
Both experiences contemplate dishes from the “Toda a Viagem” menu, proposing a different approach and readings, but with a taste sample. There is still an option à la carte
Located in the historic area of the city, A Ver Tavira was inaugurated in 2006 with the mission of paying homage to the locality and the region through a cuisine of fine dining that respects local ingredients and the traditional root. It is in this spirit that the tasting menus are frequently updated.
During the summer season, and from the 11th of July, the restaurant will be open from 12:00 pm to 15:00 pm for lunch, and from 19:00 pm to 22:00 pm for dinner, being closed only on Sundays and Mondays.
In 2021, after appearing in the Michelin Guide, A Ver Tavira received, at the end of the same year, its first Michelin star. The restaurant is also referenced in the Boa Cama Boa Mesa 2022 guide by Expresso.
