There is a new “Snack-Mar” that promises to conquer Lisbon and where you can eat with your hands
Housed in an old historic bakery, the restaurant combines tradition and contemporary sophistication, creating an environment that transports customers to the glamorous 1920s, while paying homage to the richness of the Portuguese ocean. Divided into three different environments, Real Pérola by Olivier aims to impress from the moment you enter. The Main Room transports visitors to a time where the charm of the past meets contemporary sophistication. As you move into the Transition Room, the atmosphere changes subtly, with a vibrant, bold color palette of mint and forest green. Finally, arriving at Sala Tasca, we find a contemporary interpretation of a traditional Portuguese tavern, with hand-painted geometric tiles and mirrors strategically positioned to reflect the energy of the long counter.
