Hi there! Nice to meet you
Just a simple woman with a good taste for cooking and receiving friends. The idea is to introduce you to a traditional home meal, paired with good wines. I live with my two daughters and with a nice dog (if you don t like he will go for an holiday). Some years ago I decided to live in a nice comfortably city centre flat, in a 18th century building. I love history and art and Lisbon is full of historical examples of our long past as a country.

Dinner at Isabel's was a truly wonderful experience. We were a group of four girlfriends and felt very warmly welcomed and were treated to several courses featuring regional ingredients and delicious recipes. The evening was filled with entertaining and interesting conversations. She really understands hospitality in all its facets and is a very communicative and warm person, as well as a fantastic cook. Thank you very much for this wonderful evening and this very special experience. I highly recommend it.A fantastic evening

After a week eating in (often wonderful) Lisbon restaurants, it was such a treat to be entertained in Isabel’s home. Her cooking is wonderful, her personality delightful, and she made us feel comfortable from the moment she called out to us from her little balcony (which we got to stand on and look out from ourselves). Overall a great evening. Highly recommended. Great meal and company

Isabel was just wonderful. Her apartment, the food, the wine, her dog, everything the food was outstanding and plentiful, and we sat and drank wine and talked about Lisbon and life in the world for hours. Couldn’t have been any better.Just perfect

Isabel is a charming, gregarious host who immediately puts guests at ease and soon feels like a longtime friend. She prepared a lovely array of appetizers, offering background on each dish that provides a glimpse into local culture and daily life. From delicious cheeses, to area wines and salads, Isabel shares a tasting menu from the heart. And her fish entrees and pork dish were filling and delicious. So grateful to have met her for a relaxed and enjoyable evening. Thanks, Isabel!Warm, welcoming evening

Isabel was the consummate host with grace and dignity. The meal was a cornucopia of traditional Portuguese fare. Her conversation was lively, informative and interactional.
I would highly recommend a visit with her to start your journey through the adventures of exploring Portugal!Everything you would want.

My husband and I had a wonderful evening with Isabel. She welcomed us so graciously and offered us excellent wines. We enjoyed a meal of several courses, with Isabella sharing recipes and telling us interesting information about the food. She engaged us in lively conversation in which we learned so much about Portuguese culture and traditions. We consider Isabel our new friend in Portugal. The evening was truly a highlight of our stay in Lisbon!Wonderful evening

GREAT food, INCREDIBLE conversation, AMAZING host. What else can I say. I was responsible for planning an activity for a group of friends, two couples. I communicated with Isabel and it seemed like a good fit. It was actually a match made in heaven. We actually felt like we were having dinner in the home of a friend. If you want an authentic Portuguese dinner experience with a wonderful woman-BOOK THIS!SHE’S AMAZING!
