Its character comes from the family behind it, the warm relationship with regular guests and a kitchen built around familiar flavours, fresh ingredients and recipes rooted in Madeira.<\/p>\n<div class=\"eltd-separator-holder clearfix  eltd-separator-center eltd-separator-normal\">\n\t<div class=\"eltd-separator\" style=\"margin-top: 5px\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>The family patriarch leads the kitchen, overseeing a broad menu that moves between regional cooking and Mediterranean classics. Expect daily fish, meats, rice dishes, paellas and Madeiran specialities prepared without unnecessary embellishment. Espetada, black scabbardfish with banana and bolo do caco bring the island\u2019s culinary traditions to the table, while the quality of the produce sets the tone.<\/p>\n<div class=\"eltd-separator-holder clearfix  eltd-separator-center eltd-separator-normal\">\n\t<div class=\"eltd-separator\" style=\"margin-top: 5px\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>Among the house signatures are the grilled limpets, served sizzling in the pan. Salty, intense and unmistakably Atlantic, they capture the restaurant\u2019s philosophy in one uncomplicated dish.<\/p>\n<div class=\"eltd-separator-holder clearfix  eltd-separator-center eltd-separator-normal\">\n\t<div class=\"eltd-separator\" style=\"margin-top: 5px\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>The restaurant is divided into several distinct spaces. The dining room is classic and quietly refined, while the outdoor areas lend themselves to longer, more relaxed meals. On the upper floor, the terrace looks across Funchal towards the ocean, making it especially appealing at sunset and on Madeira\u2019s mild evenings.<\/p>\n<div class=\"eltd-separator-holder clearfix  eltd-separator-center eltd-separator-normal\">\n\t<div class=\"eltd-separator\" style=\"margin-top: 5px\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>Its location in the hotel district makes it a convenient choice for visitors, but Casal da Penha\u2019s reputation rests on much more than geography. Its Michelin Guide recommendation reflects a consistency developed over time, without compromising the restaurant\u2019s relaxed, family-led character.<\/p>\n<div class=\"eltd-separator-holder clearfix  eltd-separator-center eltd-separator-normal\">\n\t<div class=\"eltd-separator\" style=\"margin-top: 30px\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<p><strong>Not to be missed<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"eltd-separator-holder clearfix  eltd-separator-center eltd-separator-normal\">\n\t<div class=\"eltd-separator\" style=\"margin-top: 1px\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Grilled limpets, served sizzling in the pan.<\/li>\n<li>The daily catch and traditional Madeiran dishes.<\/li>\n<li>Dinner on the upper-floor terrace overlooking Funchal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10381,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"_promoted":"","_job_location":"Beco da Ata\u00edde 1, S\u00e3o Martinho, 9000-604 Funchal","_application":"","_company_name":"","_company_tagline":"Traditional cooking, fresh fish and an upper-floor terrace overlooking Funchal, at a family-run restaurant recommended by the Michelin Guide.","_company_twitter":"","_company_video":"","_filled":0,"_featured":0,"_remote_position":0,"_job_salary":"","_job_salary_currency":"","_job_salary_unit":""},"job-categories":[126],"job-types":[152],"class_list":["post-10439","job_listing","type-job_listing","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","job_listing_category-eat","job_listing_type-funchal-en","job-type-funchal"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
