The à la carte menu lists an array of appetising starters like pan-fried prawns in piri-piri sauce, bang bang salad with saffron and ginger-marinated chicken, smoked salmon with asparagus, or tomato and onion soup with poached egg - a Madeiran speciality.

The grilled beef entrecôte with either Béarnaise or pepper sauce, or the chicken stroganoff with steamed rice exemplify the meats selection.
For something lighter, the quality range of sandwiches include healthy and nourishing options like baguette with marinated tuna, balsamic vinegar and olives, and bruschetta with tomato confit and Mozzarella cheese.
