Schistó
Torel Quinta da Vacaria, Peso da Régua, Portugal
Schistó seats a small number of diners around an open kitchen in the old main house at Quinta da Vacaria. Vítor Matos’s menu draws on the estate’s vegetables, olive oil and wines, alongside ingredients from the wider Douro. The format is a sequence of courses, with the kitchen team explaining dishes as they arrive. Reserve well ahead for dinner and discuss dietary requirements when booking: this is a planned evening, rather than somewhere to drop in for a quick plate.
