In their words
“We were blown away by the quality of Adam’s cooking and his attention to detail. The yuzu peach black pork was melt in your mouth. The yuzu koshō ribs were fall off the bone. My brother said they were the best he’s ever eaten.”
Kym
Quinta do Lago
“Such expertise, skill, attention to detail and top class produce. As someone who spent their life running a large private chef and catering business in Ireland, I think he’s going to be the new sensation and rising star of the Algarve.”
Mary
Quinta do Lago
“You can tell he’s a perfectionist with everything he does. The flavours and textures were truly like nothing I’ve tried before. Think Nobu but more bold, daring and unapologetically unique. 10/10.”
