Experience Details

The experience is super relaxed, we start by sitting down and tasting a little bit of Portugal, while I give a brief explanation of what we're going to cook. Cooking while hungry is a bad policy.

When we're ready, we put on our aprons and start the teamwork, under my guidance. Some of the ingredients are from my backyard, and I'll take you to see what they are...


As we prepare the food, I'll tell some stories about the origins of the ingredients to be used.


In the end, we set the table and sat down to savor all the dishes we've prepared.


IMPORTANT: If you have any food allergies or follow a specific diet (vegetarian, paleo, vegan, etc ...) let me know as soon as possible so we can prepare in advance all the ingredients needed.

Sample Menu

STARTER
Typical Portuguese starters
• Local tea, wine, or water as a welcome drink. • Olives, cheese, local jam, and toasts.
MAIN
Flavours at the Table: A House Recipe to Taste
I adapt the menus depending on the season, my guests' dietary restrictions, or preferences.
DESSERT
Of the thousands of typical Portuguese desserts - I'll choose 1
Portuguese sweets are extremely varied; they either have dairy products and eggs, or we cook fruit with a special touch.

What You’ll Experience

Get ready to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. In just 20 minutes, you'll arrive at a small and picturesque village in Lisbon. I challenge you to spend 3-4 hours of fantastic moments in a charming house that's more than 100 years old. It's located in a beautiful valley that has many stories to tell. While we cook our meal, I will share some of those stories with you around the table. All products are meticulously selected for daily freshness, taking you on a journey through Portugal and beyond. Join me.

It was fabulous - I was fortunate to be the only one who signed up and felt I was honoured to be invited into a local’s home and cook with Katija.
