About Tempero & Prosa

Brazilian home cooking done properly is rare in Alentejo, and Tempero & Prosa fills that gap without fuss. The room is small — worth knowing before you arrive on a busy evening — and the atmosphere is the kind that makes you feel like a guest rather than a customer, helped along by staff who have been known to seat late arrivals after the kitchen has technically closed. The moqueca, the picanha and the chicken stroganoff are the dishes people keep coming back to mention, and the dried-meat escondidinho with cassava — when it's on — draws its own loyal following. The owners set the tone of the whole place, and that tone is warm, unhurried and genuinely welcoming to everyone who walks through the door.

Tempero & Prosa is the neighbourhood spot done right — unhurried, unpretentious, with a wine list that gives it an edge over most of its category.

In the last 90 days, Tempero & Prosa has drawn 22 substantial written reviews (50+ characters of genuine feedback) — recent momentum that is one of the signals behind its place on the hot list.
