O Calheta
Ponta Delgada, São Miguel, Portugal
O Calheta brings a contemporary approach to Azorean petiscos in Ponta Delgada. Hugo Ferreira uses techniques such as smoking and fermentation to give local ingredients a different expression, while keeping the meal rooted in the islands. It suits an evening of sharing dishes and comparing flavours rather than a formal sequence of courses. Check the current menu and arrangements directly before visiting, since a small restaurant’s offering can change with the day’s produce.
