The influence of the Sea and the
Caldeirão Mountain in the gastronomy of the Pousada de S. Brás is perfectly
visible. Honey, goat, spicy sausages, fish and shellfish allow a special and
unique offer to the visitors. The Algarves deserts and this region in specific
are known for the use of almond, fig and carob. The restaurants menu reveals
all these flavours and aromas, and the Pork Loin Filled with Clams is a
specialty.
