Audax
Funchal, Portugal

Audax brings a contemporary interpretation of island food to one of Funchal's lively dining areas. César Vieira works with the region's culinary memories and ingredients, presenting them in a modern room with an open kitchen. The tasting-menu approach provides a useful contrast to more conventional seafood restaurants nearby. Choose it for a focused evening of discovery, and discuss the current format when booking rather than expecting the same progression at lunch and dinner.
