Initially, the Pão com Manteiga (meaning Bread with Butter) was supposed to be just a cafeteria. It became a restaurant since a student asked if he could have for lunch the food that Zaina, the principal manager and cook, used to cook for her husband and children. That day she didn’t even charge money to the student, who the next day returned with a group of friends. That day she served 10 dishes, the next day she served 20 and today it’s served an average of 200 dishes a day of simple and delicious homemade food. Noteworthy are the traditional Portuguese and Brazilian dishes, but also the famous Brazilian pastries and desserts, such as brigadeiros. It has a nice terrace in which you can enjoy on sunny days.
A space designed with the goal of being a flower-filled garden overlooking the river, where you could enjoy socializing with friends and good food at any time of the day. The choice of Camelia as a name and symbol is a tribute to Porto, as this native flower species from Asia was introduced in Portugal during the nineteenth century and became an emblematic flower of the city of Porto. Between November and April, when other flowers are rare, camellias bloom and can be admired in all their splendor in the many gardens of Porto. Here you can try some of our specialties such as various types of gourmet coffee, humus, bowls, salads, toasts, cocktails and smoothies.
