Azores Essentials
Royal Tea Meals
Royal Tea Meals are served at 2.30 or 7 PM for 2-6 people. The ultimate in luxury for those who want a unique Azorean gastronomic experience. Choose from the All Azores, encompassing tasting moments from all of the Azorean islands or the Geothermal line, encompassing our years of experience of both geothermal cooking and produce. Royal Tea Meals are paired with the best of Azorean wines, teas and non-alcoholic drinks according to the wishes of the guests and we can accommodate food preferences and intolerances easily into these services.
Our menus are not fixed and are based on the best local seasonal produce that we can find and we are more than happy to work with our clients to create menus that accommodate a wide variety of dietary restrictions. Prices are per person but a minimum fee equivalent to the price for two people (€210 or €270) is applied.

It also allows home and professional cooks alike to explore the science and techniques involved in using the heat of the earth to cook and the thermal resources to generate singular geoproducts.
