Café Ambrizete home appeared in the 70s and can be said to be part of a range of the oldest houses in the area. The name ‘Ambrizete’ derives from the time of the returnees, the people who returned from the old Portuguese overseas provinces, being the name of an Angolan city at the time. At the beginning, with the theme of a tea room, the space contained sofas for the comfort of its clients and paintings on the walls with the theme ‘Angola’. Of these paintings it is still possible to see part of them under the false ceiling, as well as a stained glass window that is part of the origins of the house. Nowadays, the highlight goes to the games of Santa Casa, to its billiards, to the space outside and to its soup, which never disappoints its clients.

Duarte’s Street Food reflects the talent and creativity of Portuguese gastronomy. The concept of ‘Street Food’ arises in order to make the best national flavours known, from the suckling pig sandwich, meat rissol, to the ham and egg sandwich. They travel the country so that everyone can know and taste their sandwiches. Concerts, festivals and pilgrimages are events where parties and food combine and Duarte’s Street Food is present, to share and provide unique and complete moments. After several requests for the existence of a physical shop, this space was born, where you can find your sandwiches in a fixed place and where customers are welcomed as friends.

At Confeitaria São Domingos the commitment is to the customer and their health. Based on a long family tradition of pastry and with a strong influence of Venezuelan pastry, Confeitaria São Domingos works every day thinking about the well-being of the client. How? They have hot bread daily. Several batches guarantee that, whatever the time you visit, you can taste bread out of the oven. The smell of freshly baked bread makes people more likable, and those who say it are scientists at the University of Southern Brittany in Great Britain, who have watched people pass by or were in bakeries. If there was a smell of hot bread in the air, the chances of helping a stranger were much greater.
