This restaurant was born in 1905, as Casa de Pasto, changing its name later in the 60's to Solar Moinho de Vento. According to some testimonials and writings of the time, it was with this name that Portuguesa fado diva, Amália Rodrigues, acted in this space. Renovated in 2002, this centenary restaurant is renowned for its traditional Portuguese food and its award-winning wine list. In our menu we highlight Ribs Rice with vegetables, Octopus Rice and “Pica no Chão” (traditional chicken rice), among several other options. In addition to top quality dishes, Solar Moinho de Vento offers a warm atmosphere and a caring and friendly service.

Say Cheese is a shop specialised in cheese and wine with an area for tasting and conviviality. The shop area is right at the entrance of the new space and has several national and international suggestions that you can take home. There are boards that can be accompanied with sweets, jams and wine glasses. At the end of the room, after passing the shop, there is the tasting area. Everything that arrives at the table has cheese, of course, and that which varies are the accompaniments. You can go through the shop window and choose three, five or seven of your favourite cheeses.

The owner’s name is Eugenia and the history of her café is a “funny” one: she worked in a school nearby, but she did not like working there very much. She took care of the children when they were on their break, but while during school hours her work was more quiet. Bored, but still without another job in sight, she found herself forced to find an escape as an excuse to get out of there. One day, while passing through the street of Bonjardim, she saw a shop that was about to wander and thought she could open a café in that space, betting on her homemade dumplings, something she loved to do. And so Geninha appeared, the name by which she was called at school, where she could share her cakes and snacks.
