Gastronomy
We offer more than exceptional stays — we offer a journey through the rich and diverse flavors of Portugal. Rooted in tradition and inspired by the land and sea, each meal is a tribute to the region’s heritage, prepared with care, authenticity, and a deep respect for local ingredients.
À TERRA.
New Traditional Gastronomy
For a New WAY of being
This is a place for meetings and synergies, under the leadership of CHEF CRISTIANO ISHI. In the land of fire, we combine products from the countryside with those from the sea, and cooked them in a wood-fired oven, in a Josper or naturally in ovens dug out over the hot springs.. From the meats that come to us from local producers, to the fish from the auction and the freshest greens, we are passionate about the flavours of the Azores – genuine and rustic, cooked traditionally or in a more contemporary way. So it will be easy to travel through the immensity of the island, even without leaving your seat at the table.
Take the opportunity, too, to visit our Lobby Market and buy some of the products and utensils used at the À TERRA restaurant, or other local delicacies and items.
THE "COZIDO"
In the land of stews, which is essentially what the word “cozido” means, Octant Furnas wanted, once again, to stand out from the crowd.
Tasting our stew is a journey through the history of Portuguese stew flavours, from north to south; and out to the islands.
And so we created our signature "Cozido à TERRA". Cooked naturally at high temperatures over the hot springs, in a celebration of local culinary traditions, with our own special touch: we use local products, such as yams and sweet potatoes, alheira sausage from Santa Maria, beef brisket and vegetables from Bio Kairos.
Then we add a handfull of inspiration that brings the two sides of the ocean together.
