Sobre nós
O restaurante MÉZ inspira-se no comércio histórico de especiarias entre as civilizações da Ásia, do nordeste de África e da Europa. Celebra o uso e a troca ancestrais de especiarias como canela, cássia, cardamomo, gengibre, pimenta, noz-moscada, anis-estrelado, cravinho e curcuma. Esta rota comercial expandiu-se, ligando Roma, o norte de África, o oceano Índico e a China, com a Índia no seu centro.
A descoberta de uma rota alternativa para o Sudeste Asiático por Vasco da Gama, no século XV, levou à criação de um império das especiarias com Goa como centro. A cozinha indiana difundiu-se pelo Sudeste Asiático, enquanto a cozinha do Sudeste Asiático chegou à Índia e ao Sri Lanka.
No MÉZ, procuramos redescobrir e honrar as tradições culinárias moldadas pelo oceano Índico, tradições que deixaram uma marca profunda na história gastronómica mundial.
