The oldest and most renowned maker of traditional Madeiran cakes. Specialities: "Bolo de Mel" and other traditional sweets.
Bolo de Mel - Madeira Sugarcane Honey Cake dates to the heyday of sugar production on the island, being Madeira oldest and most traditional pastry confection. The bolo de mel cake became a popular confection when the island was an important sugar producer since the cake itself is traditionally made with molasses instead of the now-popular honey, which meant it could be stored for up to 5 years. When it is served in Madeira, it is customary not to cut the cake, but rather to tear pieces off using the hands.

Fresh grilled fish, seafood and Filete de Espada have to be eaten here! Speciality: "Filete de Espada".
Filete de Espada – Espada Preto (Black scabbardfish) is a species that mainly live in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean and much appreciated in Madeira. As a fish it has an ugly look (look for them in Mercado dos Lavradores, in Funchal) but tastes good when cooked. These fish are extremely palatable, with a delicate texture and almost buttery flavour. Fillets that are seasoned with salt, bay leaves, pepper, minced garlic and lemon juice, marinated. Peeled fish fillets are then dipped in egg and flour, fried in oil and sprinkled with fresh parsley, sometimes sided with fried banana.
