Whether it’s with family on the evening of 24th December, or throughout the last month of the year with friends, a Christmas dinner is always special. Talking of special, Pestana hotels have excellent restaurants that invite you to enjoy the seasonal moment with marvellous meals.
Diaries begin to get rather full and the month of December seems too short for all the Christmas dinners scheduled until the year is out. Apart from squeezing them into fewer than 30 days, the problem is finding new, inviting places with great dishes that surprise everyone, creating something unforgettable. This is where the restaurants at Pestana hotels come in, offering cosy atmospheres and memorable experiences.
Well-prepared when it comes to serving groups, each Pestana restaurant has its own identity, offering a menu influenced by the hotel’s location and history. Between Lisbon and Porto there are a number of suggestions, such as Palatium, at the Pestana Palácio do Freixo, Porto, which combines the classic and contemporary for a special celebration. In Lisbon, there’s Rib Beef & Wine, which is housed at the Pousada Lisboa Praça do Comércio, also offering an exclusive experience with a menu that focusses on excellent meat.
If your group is looking for something more relaxed, try the Taberna da Praça, at the Pestana Cidadela in Cascais, where the atmosphere is intimate and the menu pairs appetisers with good wines. Similar in spirit, we have the P Gastro bar, at the Pousada Porto – Rua das Flores, which offers a cosy feel with sharing dishes inspired by traditional Portuguese cuisine.
In addition to Lisbon and Porto, there’s a wide range of Pestana hotel restaurants that invite you to celebrate the Christmas spirit with friends and family. All over the country, on the mainland and islands, throughout December or even for a different Christmas Eve, away from home, these classy eateries are designed to celebrate everything that this season deserves.
