Hello 2015: New Year´s Resolutions

On the last day of 2014, one of the best years for tourism in Lisbon, we asked for New Year’s resolutions of some of those responsible for restaurants visited by Taste of Lisbon Food Tour.

Ana and Tiago, the soul and the creative chef of Leopold.

“Leopold has grown considerably in this first year. My New Year’s resolutions? To expand the restaurant.”

Cátia, The chef of 2 à Esquina in the Market.

“What I wish for 2015? To mantain at least what we reached in 2014. Perfect will be to make it grow!”

Aziz, the owner and the heart of Afro-Indian flavours of Cantinho do Aziz.

“2014 was simply a great year. I can only hope that 2015 equals it!”

Mr. António, our host at Os Amigos da Severa.
The most authentic and fun old tavern that we visit in our Downtown-Mouraria Food & Cultural Tour
“The request I made to Our Lady was a 2015 at least equal to 2014, if it is better no problem. To my house and to
my clients, if 2015 is not equal to 2014 may it be better. That God gives you twice what you wish for me.”

Jorge and Rui, founders and partners of Oficina do Vinho.
