This slinky, monochrome, glass-walled restaurant-lounge ups the style ante in Parque das Nações. Seasonal, Med-inspired cuisine is given a light touch of sophistication in dishes such as roasted lobster with winter fruit vol-au-vent and curried pear, or half-cured cod with salt-cured tuna (muxuma), celery purée, squid ink and asparagus.
Good cocktails (€14 to €20) are perfect for pre- or post-dinner drinks, and the terrace has stunning views of the Rio Tejo and Ponte Vasco da Gama.
