Restaurant Route
The Michelin-starred restaurant at the Four Seasons Hotel Ritz Lisbon, where chef Rodolfo Lavrador creates contemporary Portuguese cuisine, rooted in national produce and open to the world.
The restaurant
Opened in October 2020 at the Four Seasons Hotel Ritz Lisbon, with its own entrance on Rua Rodrigo da Fonseca, Cura won a Michelin star in its very first year and has held it ever since. The intimate dining room has around 30 seats and an open kitchen, where the team brings part of the service to the table.
The cooking starts from Portuguese produce and flavours — fish and squid from the Azores, bread made from ancestral wheats, açordas, feijoadas and traditional sauces — and crosses them with ingredients and techniques from other parts of the world, such as kombu, nori or kosho. Cooking full of flavour, in which sauces, acidity and textures are well balanced, without the desire to surprise overriding the essentials.
For Chefs Week, Cura presents the Passo menu, in ten courses, with the «Colheitas e Criações» pairing option: a selection of five Portuguese wines served by the glass.
Chefs Week menu: €145 per person, paid at the restaurant.
Booking is made directly with the restaurant.
In the kitchen
He studied Law before turning to cooking and worked in fine-dining kitchens in Madrid, New York and London, where he worked at Mãos, by Nuno Mendes. He joined Cura as sous chef and took over as head chef in early 2025, succeeding Pedro Pena Bastos, with a voice of his own and no break from the previous work.
