Cantinho do Avillez is a special concept; it was the first place I opened when I left Tavares and started creating what is now José Avillez Group. The goal was to create a comfortable place with good Portuguese-inspired cuisine influenced by my travels abroad. The first opened in 2011 in Chiado and became so successful that in 2014 we opened a Cantinho do Avillez in Porto. Then we opened Cantinho do Avillez here in Parque das Nações and later in Cascais. The menu is varied and includes many successful dishes, like the Marinated Scallops, the Peixinhos da Horta, the Flaked Cod with Breadcrumbs, the LT Egg and Exploding Olives, the Cantinho-style Steak, the Spoon-tender Veal, the Hazelnut3, and many other dishes.
