Some dinners are remembered for their flavours, while some nights are remembered for their atmosphere. At the Candlelight Dinner at Oculto, the one-Michelin-starred restaurant at The Lince Santa Clara, both come together. No electric lights, only candles. No ambient music, just live violin and cello setting the pace for the evening of September 26th.
From 7:30pm, the courses unfold like musical scores, created by chefs Vítor Matos and Hugo Rocha: Bulhão Pato, Sardine, Red Prawn, Crab and Citrus, Langoustine and Hazelnut, Squid and Sheep’s Butter, Cod Neck and Turnip Greens, and Pudding and Caviar. Eight moments, each designed to engage with the music accompanying it — not as background, but as part of the experience.
More than a dinner, it is an invitation to slow down: replacing the noise of everyday life with eight courses, two strings and the oldest light there is.
Price: €150 per person
