Algarve new Restaurants

With the arrival of the summer holidays and the warm and long days inviting for delicious outdoor meals, new restaurants emerge for lunch, dinner or a simple gourmet snack.

During the pandemic, the Algarve saw the emergence of new restaurants, which try to counteract current adversities. From the seafood of the Algarve coast to the flavours of the East, there is so much to taste in the Portuguese’s favourite summer destination. If you are in the Algarve or going there, take a look at some of the new spots.

Restaurant Al Sud

Chef Louis Anjos signs the menus of the new fine dining restaurant at Palmares Ocean Living & Golf Resort, in Lagos. Space invites you to enjoy various tasting moments, with the best that the region has to offer, especially the seafood diversity. Tuna with oysters from the Alvor river, oscietra caviar and granny apple, Iberian pork noodles with stew broth, Monchique corns and fine herbs, sea bass with rice from the Sado Valley region, mussels and saffron or Algarvian prawns with fatty bacon, are some of Al Sud’s proposals.

Location: Palmares Golf Course, near Lagos golf breaks

Restaurant Pier by the sea

The seafood restaurant and brewery owned by the chef César Lourenço left the Santa Eulália area, where it had been for three years, to settle right in the centre of Albufeira. Seafood continues to have the chef’s quality guarantee, who offers the Super Onda de Marisco boards as suggestions. Highlights include the seafood rice, but also the Tuna Prego in caco bread from Cais ao Mar, the loin Picapau and the Pata Negra ham, at the starters.

Restaurant Tico Tico Algarve

Seafood and appetizers are the star of this new space on Quarteira’s waterfront, with the beach right at your feet. On the terrace facing the sea, entertain yourself with barnacles, crab or cuttlefish roe, octopus salad and fish-egg salad. For full meals, Tico Tico Algarve has xerém clams, Octopus Pataniscas and Bitoque.

Sushi is a must in this new space at Vale do Lobo Resort. Inspired by Bali and Greece, the Well is located in Vale do Lobo square, right next to the pool and overlooking the sea. A sophisticated space, Well Vale do Lobo also has tacos, pokes, baguettes and snacks such as cuttlefish strips, chicken wings with chilli sauce and beef croquettes.

Then there’s Scallop Tempura, Chicken Yakitori and Gyozas, among other dishes.

Golf in Portugal – Trade Circuit at Old Course in Vilamoura

Vilamoura Old Course

Trade Circuit at Old Course in Vilamoura

Trade Dom Pedro Circuit at the Old Course in Vilamoura, with a shot gun at 8:30 am in wonderful conditions. I made an interesting score, 37pt including 2 birdies and two blobs. I’m not a player hitting the ball too far but even so I got some greens in regulation and on the other holes some good chipping and good putting make the result. The greens were soft, very smooth and not overly fast and so it was a pleasure to play once again at the Old Course, one of the best golf courses in Portugal and which maintains an unshakeable prestige, precisely because of its wonderful design and which is challenging for all types of players. Dog legs, trees and bunkers oblige the player to place the ball precisely, in order to aspire to a good result, but it is a benefit to spend 4 hours playing that golf course, involved in nature.

There were several prizes, and the winner of the day was Jose Carlos Rodrigues with 43 pt, followed by João Miquelina 38pt and Alexandre Lopes da Cruz also with 38pt.

After 3 rounds the overall classification net is like this:
1st Rosangela Gois representing Tee Times Golf … 112pt
2nd Manuel di Pietro representing Catering Events … 111pt
3rd João Miquelina rep. Design Outlet Algarve … 107pt
4º Carlos Ferreira representing Tee Times Golf … 105 pt.

The last two tournaments to close the Dom Pedro Trade Circuit will be played at the prestigious Victoria golf course on 28th August and 27 November. Good luck to all.
