With its stunning panoramic terrace high above the Rio Homem, this gorgeously situated restaurant is a temple to the finest ingredients that the surrounding countryside has to offer, including javali (wild boar), veado (venison) and coelho (rabbit), along with beef and goat raised in the adjacent fields. Finish with requeijão – a soft goat’s cheese so fresh it’s actually sweet.
The only drawback: in low season the restaurant keeps irregular hours, so call ahead before making the trip. It’s located 9km west of Campo do Gerês (across the dam), in the village of Brufe.
