🍴Come Dine With Me #2: Oficina Do Duque, Lisbon, Portugal

in #food7 years ago

Hi everyone!

On to my next favorite restaurant in Lisbon, Portugal: Oficina Do Duque! This restaurant is in Chiado and it has indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating was a major driving point for this cute restaurant. It's located on a winding walkway right off of Praça do Rossio. It was the perfect place to take in the warm Lisbon air and enjoy a delicious meal.
We came here twice around the normal dinner time of 8pm and there was no wait. The staff here is also super friendly and would say hello to us even when were just passing through. ☺

We took advantage of the beautiful weather there and sat outside both times, but the indoor had such nice décor with the cute tiled floor.

Now onto the food!

This is the oxtail, rocha pear and chicharos: shredded oxtail with pear puree and yellow split peas. This was Paul’s dish. The oxtail was succulent with great flavor.

Now this was my dish, confit of lamb with couscous and mint sorbet. This was seriously incredible. The mix of flavors was quite a surprise particularly the addition of the mint sorbet. The lamb was very tender and the mix of textures was delightful. Highly recommend this dish.

We tried two desserts: Chocolate, Olive Oil, and Salt and Flour, Banana, and Honey. We greatly preferred the Chocolate, Olive Oil, and Salt which was similar to a chocolate mousse but with a twist. It was a lovely way to cap off a delicious meal.

If you're stopping by Lisbon, I urge you to make a stop at Oficina! You won't regret it!

Hope you enjoy this mouthwatering post!

Love,
Jessica
