Discover Portugal

Tucked along the sunlit edge of Southern Europe, Portugal is a land steeped in legacy—where Roman roads, royal palaces, and fishing villages all leave their mark. From golden coasts to misty mountains, it offers a timeless beauty and a culture best experienced through its food, people, and places.

Meet the Portuguese Chef Rui Paula

Raised on the traditions of his mother’s kitchen, Chef Rui Paula has become one of Portugal’s best chefs. At DOC, his acclaimed restaurant perched over the Douro River, Rui creates dishes that reflect his belief that food should tell a story.

Born From the Sea

Thanks to its proximity to the ocean, Portuguese cuisine is fresh, simple, and tied to the landscape. Seafood caught before sunrise is rendered into salted cod or grilled sardines. Every dish tells a story—of coastlines, countryside, and family traditions.
