INSPIRATION: A PLACE TO RELAX, VICIOUSLY




GRAPES & SPICES is that kind of cool places in the heart of the city that you should visit. Near of Cais do Sodré, and in the way to the the fanciest Lisbon shops and boutiques, the ALECRIM STREET had a total renewal and got lots of amazing bars, bistros,organic and gourmet shops, art galleries, boutique hotels, music and jazz stores, antique and old bookstores, and an amazing project called "Pension of Love" which was an old famous brothel and now is a kind of business center with rooms to rent for all kind of business and a bar in the ground floor where everything was maintained from the furniture to the decor of the time (later I will talk more about this project).



GRAPES & SPICES was in the No.49, Alecrim Street and have the most tasty homemade cakes of Lisbon, mainly the chocolate cake and my favorite the one covered by lemon curd. It's a perfect place to relax in the sofas and take a glass of Portuguese wine with gourmet snacks from Portuguese's artisans from the best regions of the country.

GRAPES & SPICES also turned to a mini art gallery, and now there is a collective exhibition of painting and photography " 4 OURS" that runs until 10 December.
