Winter arrivals at Bomfim 1896 with Pedro Lemos
15 March 2024
After a short break, the restaurant has reopened its doors, offering a unique gastronomic experience at Quinta do Bomfim, in the village of Pinhão, with stunning views of the Douro River. In partnership with the Symington family, renowned chef Pedro Lemos is presenting exciting news for this season, including new dishes on the menu and a tasting menu.
Inspired by the traditional flavors and ingredients of the region, the new menu features comforting dishes designed to welcome visitors during the winter. Delicacies such as Wild Boar in a Pot, Roots and Mushrooms, and Milk Goat roasted in a wood-fired oven are among the novelties. A highlight among the desserts is the irresistible Tonka Bean, Carrot and Ginger Crème Brûlée.
One of the great novelties is the tasting menu, which offers the opportunity to taste some of the house's most emblematic creations, paired with a careful selection of the best wines from the Symington family's portfolio.
In addition to the new dishes, the menu continues to offer favorites from Bomfim 1896 with Pedro Lemos, such as Caldeirada with fish of the day, shellfish and squid, Vaca with onions, spicy horseradish and grilled lettuce, and Mil-folhas with smoked cream and salted caramel.
At Bomfim 1896 with Pedro Lemos, the Douro is the undisputed protagonist.
