Gastronomy at Madeira Island Hotel Casa Velha do Palheiro embraces all the flavours, textures and aromas of gourmet cuisine.
Combining familiar culinary concepts with new and contemporary flourishes, the menu choice at Casa Velha skilfully reinvents traditional Portuguese food with a southern European accent and an exotic oriental twist.
The Casa Velha Dining Room
The dining room at Madeira Island Hotel Casa Velha do Palheiro overlooks the landscaped grounds and manicured lawn at the rear of the five-star property. Decorated in restful shades of peach and designed to embody the style and comfort of country living, the Casa Velha dining room reflects the classical elegance associated with the hotel. Handsome mahogany tables set across a floor of smooth wood enhance the room's rustic appeal. Lighter, wicker tables placed outside on the terrace offer more spontaneous, al fresco impression. French windows curtained in lace and crowned with a floral trim afford fine views back across the gardens. Polished silverware and Villeroy & Boch tableware in petite fleur motif exemplify the attention to detail. Sprays of fresh flowers add colour and fragrance.
Palheiro Golf Clubhouse Restaurant
Gastronomy at Palheiro Golf Clubhouse Restaurant combines local culinary tastes with a southern European flavour. Influenced by the Atlantic and inspired by the Mediterranean – with a dash of the oriental adding a little spice – the cuisine serves to illustrate the imagination and creativity associated with the award-winning kitchen at Madeira Island Hotel Casa Velha do Palheiro, who manage the Clubhouse Restaurant. Set under the 18th green at Madeira Island Palheiro Golf, the Clubhouse Restaurant sits high above Funchal and affords a glorious panorama of the bay, the mountains and the Atlantic Ocean.
