After years of anticipation and hearing great things about this restaurant, I finally experienced the cooking magic of Casa Fofó, despite living just a stone’s throw away. This charming little restaurant offers a tasting menu like no other, carefully designed to take diners on a flavourful adventure - from the freshest catches of the sea to the most meaty flavours this country has to offer.
What I appreciated about Casa Fofó was its relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. There's no pretentiousness here, just a comfortable, intimate space that feels like an extension of the chef’s own kitchen. With seating for just 16 lucky guests, the focus is entirely on serving each dish with care, allowing the flavours to shine as the evening unfolds.
It’s rare to find a menu so thoughtfully curated, building up layer by layer to a medley of flavours, culminating in not one but two outstanding desserts. Each dessert was a perfect mix of balance and refreshment, leaving a lasting impression.
If you’re looking for the next tasting menu that will leave your soul and tummy happy, look no further. This is how ‘fine’ dining should be - thoughtfully prepared and focused on the essentials, without the unnecessary frills that often increase the cost without adding to the experience.
