"Ceia" - the Portuguese word for supper - recalls for comfort, tradition and friendship. It also represents one of the deepest values within the Portuguese culture, the pleasure of preparing and sharing our food, with the ones we cherish the most, while creating the opportunity to share a significant moment in time, at the end of each day.
From Wednesday to Saturday at 19:30, guests are invited to experience our tasting menu, The Garden of Earthly Delights.
In 2023 we began a new chapter with Head Chef Renato Bonfim and his team, presenting The Last Harvest, a menu focused on soil regeneration and the pressing challenges threatening our planet, including scarcity of food and water, desertification, and the fragility of Earth’s systems.
In the first chapter we explored how life is being restored to the soil through regenerative agriculture and holistic management at Herdade no Tempo. In the second chapter our awareness expanded, reflecting on the nine planetary boundaries identified by Professor Johan Rockström, from biosphere integrity, climate change, and ocean acidification to stratospheric ozone depletion, novel entities, atmospheric aerosol loading, biogeochemical flows, freshwater use, and land-system change.
Now in the third chapter we continue to deepen our vision, from tending our farm’s soil to understanding the broader limits of our planet. This evolution shapes our gastronomic approach, reminding us that responsible choices today ensure what we value will endure for future generations.
The Garden of Earthly Delights, inspired by Hieronymus Bosch’s masterpiece, unites our vision with a symbolic, almost biblical narrative, a meditation on abundance, fragility, and the delicate balance of life.
