Cura

We find ourselves in the gourmet space of the Four Seasons Hotel Ritz Lisbon, a luxurious and emblematic hotel that nevertheless allows the restaurant to assert its own identity, with a separate entrance. The establishment, which adopts the word “curadoria” (“curators who care for art”) as its name, has Chef Rodolfo Lavrador at the stoves and boasts an open kitchen where a modern, audacious and balanced cuisine is championed—considered creations with surprising technical command. The offering conveys Chef Rodolfo’s view of his culinary path between past and present, so two tasting menus are presented: the first, named Percurso (“Path”), pays homage to Portuguese recipes reinterpreted with contemporary techniques; the second, entitled Passo (“Step”), is an experience that underscores the evolution and the steps the chef has taken throughout his career. Both versions can be vegetarian!
