Its name reflects a fondness for its roots, traditional cooking and the region. Set in a picturesque village on the outskirts of Viseu, this typical Beira house, built entirely of stone and dressed in warm colours and wood, is the refuge where chef Nuno Fonte presents a menu rooted in local terroir and family memories, interpreted with a contemporary touch. On arrival, diners are welcomed with a glass of rosé from the house wine cellar, built largely around wines from the region. Among the main courses, we highlight the Lombo de bacalhau da Islândia com sames e línguas, Icelandic cod loin with its swim bladders and tongues, served with a richly flavoured oven-baked rice; and for dessert, the Pudim de laranja, orange pudding, with carrot ganache over miso salted-caramel cream, delivering a superb sweet-savoury contrast.
