O Ernesto is a restaurant that has been in existence since 1938 and specializes in traditional Portuguese food. The name of the restaurant originated in 1968 when Ernesto Pereira, the father of the current owner, buys the place and calls it "The Ernesto". In 1990, Reinaldo Pereira, his son, became the owner of this same restaurant. After the completion of works and deep remodeling, the space known today is reborn, where the modern decoration blends with the rustic architecture of the building. Portuguese cuisine remains the strong point of this emblematic restaurant in the city, with a varied menu for all tastes, from starters to dessert.

The mythical Café Corcel, born in 1967 in the Pinheiro Manso area, has recently reopened with a new life. The space is more beautiful and luminous, modernised, but containing some traditional touches, and its shop window reflects this, where we find an exhibition with a lot of conventual sweets. This is the star of this space, the confectionery, and we are not talking about the conventional cakes, known to all pastries in Porto, but rather about conventual confectionery: egg chestnuts, egg cones, almond delights, Tentúgal pastries. There are also homemade pizzas, salads and carpaccios, if you want a light meal and a DJ at the weekend, to enjoy while drinking a cocktail.
The concept of ‘boteco’ (a commercial establishment where drinks in general and small snacks are sold) is relatively recent in Portugal, but it is a real institution in Brazil.
