Experience

Organic Sharing Plates

Getting to know a region also means discovering its flavors, its products, and the stories behind every ingredient. Bearing this in mind, Casa Fortunato’s open kitchen takes its inspiration from a traditional Mediterranean diet and lifestyle while delicately incorporating the Japanese philosophy of ‘shibui’ (beauty in simplicity) in to every meal…

We are mad about good ingredients and we look forward to nourishing your body (and soul) with exceptional food. Enjoy your own Chef upon request taking his immense pleasure in creating outstanding meals, packed with fresh, organic ingredients that reflect the integrity and quality of our local, independent suppliers.

As part of this program, a visit to the Alcácer do Sal market is essential to discover and select the ingredients for each meal. Back at Casa Fortunato, it is time to prepare the meal, learn techniques, share knowledge, and-above all-work up an appetite. The experience culminates in the dining room, with everyone gathered around the table for an intimate moment of sharing that will be long remembered.
