Xéxéxé

It was the first vegan restaurant in Caparica and remains a benchmark to this day.

What you can find there is comfort food, with francesinhas, Mac & Cheese, hamburgers, puff pastries and risottos. And the desserts? If you’re on the north bank of the Tagus, you’ll want to cross the river to try the snickers pie or one of those sinful cheesecakes.

The produce is seasonal, so the menu varies throughout the year.

The disposables articles, which are used as little as possible, are made from recycled paper, and the napkins, also made from paper, are as small as possible.

They choose good quality utensils for greater durability and are committed to saving energy.
