Dom Joaquim is located next to the Porta de Serpa Pinto, one of the access gates to the historic centre of Évora. The stylish, classic-contemporary ambience here features bare stone walls and a series of hanging sculptures that add a welcoming feel. Chef Joaquim Almeida bases his cuisine on traditional Alentejo cooking with a modern touch. On the menu you’ll find daily specials, traditional and local dishes, plus a selection of “convent”-style pastries and desserts. Make sure you try the “auga de prata” pudding, the recipe for which originates from the Convento de Santa Clara, just a few metres away.
