Farm<br />
From<br />
Fork<br />
To<br />
WITH VILA VITA PARC RESORT & SPA<br />
Discover how VILA VITA Parc Resort & Spa are preserving<br />
Portuguese traditions and showcasing local flavours through their<br />
marvellous farm to fork cuisine. This time we look at The Fork.<br />
You’re destined to have a gastronomic experience at VILA VITA<br />
Parc Resort & Spa. As we learnt in the last issue, ingredients are<br />
carefully picked from the resort’s own Herdade dos Grous Organic<br />
Farm, and from local suppliers, so you can always enjoy fresh,<br />
naturally, locally-sourced, and organic produce.<br />
This local bounty - from Algarvean oranges from the Silves area<br />
and hand-harvested Flor de Sal to the Monchique enchidos<br />
(sausages) and almonds - is thoughtfully enhanced with luxury<br />
items, such as rare caviar, to create exquisite dishes.<br />
This is then paired with the resort’s philosophy of celebrating<br />
diverse cuisines. You’ll find an incredible six bars and 11 restaurants,<br />
all with their own flavours and style, topped off with impeccable<br />
yet unpretentious service.<br />
Experience clean and crisp Japanese cuisine<br />
at Mizu Teppanyaki. There’s also the deliciously<br />
sustainable Atlantico restaurant, which focuses on<br />
modern Portuguese flavours inspired by nature,<br />
and has a menu that changes based on what’s<br />
available from the local fishermen and farmers.<br />
You can discover Portugal’s regional specialties and traditions at<br />
Adega restaurant, including classics from the islands of Madeira<br />
and Azores, where every dish tells a story.<br />
The pièce de résistance, however, is the two Michelin-starred<br />
restaurant, Ocean, which reimagines authentic Portuguese food<br />
at the hands of culinary superstar Hans Neuner. To top off your<br />
sublime culinary experience, Ocean boasts brilliant views of the<br />
Atlantic Ocean.<br />
It would be rude of us not to mention VILA VITA Parc’s incredible<br />
wine cellar, which is stocked with over 11,000 bottles, the largest<br />
private wine collection in Portugal. It’s an experience in itself as<br />
the first-class sommeliers are always on tap to suggest the perfect<br />
pairing! Why not enjoy a romantic private dinner or intimate wine<br />
tasting under the vaulted ceilings?<br />
What are you waiting for? Visit VILA VITA this year and tuck in!<br />
A 7 night holiday at Vila Vita Parc in the Algarve starts from £1,395 per person.<br />
