Olá, I am Helena! I love to cook and I would love to have you over dinner at my house. The best Portuguese food is homemade, and it will be my pleasure to show our traditions to you!

This dinner is also 100% personalized so if there is anything on the menu you would like to change, it is possible!

This 3-course dinner comes with a traditional appetizer of bread, sausage and olives and a main dish of your choice. Would you like to try some bacalhau, feijoada or arroz de marisco? Let me know your preference! And for dessert, I have some homemade jams paired with a tasty local cheese that you will love! And let's not forget the drinks! Enjoy a great Portuguese as a welcome treat.
