On July 11th, we gather for a Wild-to-Table Mushroom Dinner: Summer Edition shaped by the meeting point of forest and ocean.

Led by Zé, the chef behind Ostra da Terra, this long-table experience invites guests into a way of cooking deeply rooted in nature. Unsuited to city life and drawn instead to the sea and the pine forests of Sintra, Zé has built his work around what he personally forages and catches, wild mushrooms from the forest floor and fish and seafood gathered through spearfishing.

The menu unfolds over an organic couvert, two starters, one main course, and dessert. Spring mushrooms such as chanterelles, hedgehog mushrooms, and morels will feature prominently, reflecting the natural rhythm of the season. Each ingredient is carefully selected and prepared with restraint, allowing its true character to emerge.

Throughout the lunch, Zé will share the stories behind the dishes, how mushrooms are foraged, how spearfishing connects him directly to the ocean, and why seasonality is not a concept but a way of life. His approach to cooking is guided by biodiversity, minimal waste, and a deep respect for the ecosystem.

This is more than a meal. It is an opportunity to slow down, gather at a shared table in the forest, and experience a form of gastronomy that follows nature’s timing, cooking with what the land and sea offer, when they offer it.
