For the grand finale, a chilled Tawny Port (Niepoort) to match the almonds and chocolate based dessert. If you’re not a wine lover, or for some reason you prefer to enjoy your food without any wines, just choose the no-Booze ticket option when buying your ticket (we have delicious teas and juices as well :-).

    The Eurasian Cuisine
    Four centuries ago, the Portuguese went to Goa, Malacca and Macau and they had to devise find alternatives that could substitue some of the original ingredients of their cuisine. Instead of Portuguese chouriço, they would use Chinese sausage, instead of cream they would use coconut milk, and so forth. 

For the Eurasian people, Western food was too bland, so they added ingredients such as lemon grass, kaffir lime and ginger, whilst at the same time, still incorporating the Portuguese ingredients like vinegar and mustard. They made it different from the Portuguese or Asian cuisine – they made it Eurasian cuisine, which you can now find in Macau, Goa, Malacca, Singapore and East Timor, and now at the Portuguese Conspiracy Delicatessen

    Chef Kei de Freitas
    Kei has spent many years adapting his traditional cuisine into exquisite vegetarian dishes, always thriving to innovate whilst keeping a close eye on the his Portuguese and Eurasian background. All of Kei’s food is freshly cooked from scratch and served in the traditional Portuguese and Eurasian way, where you share with everyone at the table. When you leave you won’t feel like you’ve just had dinner – you’ll feel like you have just made new friends.
