ABOUT THE RESTAURANT

Lamelas.
New Alentejo cuisine.

Overlooking the Porto Covo bay on a panoramic balcony, LAMELAS is a family-run restaurant whose main mission is to serve NEW ALENTEJO CUISINE in comfort, with technique and creativity through the use of local products. Since 2024, the restaurant has been included in Michelin Guide recommendations for Portugal and this year received the prestigious distinction of 1 Sol Repsol.

ABOUT THE RESTAURANT

Ana Moura.
Back to her roots.

Ana Moura knows the Alentejo, especially Porto Covo, ever since she was a child. The restaurant bears her mother’s surname, thus reflecting not only this connection to the land, but also to its people, its products and its local businesses.

She has studied jewellery and marketing, but cooking is her greatest passion. In Portugal she worked at Eleven, and in Spain at Arzak and Astelena, among others, before taking over Cave 23 in Lisbon. She opened LAMELAS in May 2021 and by October 2024 was one of the guest speakers at the prestigious San Sebastián Gastronomika festival.

“There’s something I learned from an Alentejo woman who told me one day: “Alentejo cuisine can be summed up like this: Today you have coriander, so cook your dish with coriander, tomorrow you have rabbit, so make something with rabbit”. There’s no obligation to use this or that ingredient. What matters is that it tastes like home, that it tastes like the Alentejo”

Wines

We favour terroir and low-intervention wines

The logic of eating local products, fundamental to a restaurant that seeks to be sustainable, is part of LAMELAS’ identity, which is why, in addition to favouring terroir and low intervention wines, most of its wines come from the Alentejo coast. For the sake of diversity, however, its wine list is not limited to this area and is open to other regions and producers.
