A geologist's name
A nubbin is, in geology, one of those residual granite boulders that wind, rain and snow gradually uncover in the mountains and to which shepherds gave names. The restaurant at the Casa das Penhas Douradas takes the name for its cooking: made from the traditions of the Serra da Estrela and reinterpreted by its cooks.
What you eat
At midday, cooking close to the mountain gastronomy; in the evening, signature cooking. They work with local ingredients and a wine list from the regions around the Estrela. There are gluten-free and vegetarian dishes and light meals. In winter, the fire is lit.
