Taberna Pimenta is a traditional Portuguese restaurant located in the Vila Verde, Braga area. The restaurant is set in a quaint village surrounded by lovely greenery and rolling hills, offering an idyllic setting for a meal. The menu features a range of traditional dishes, including presunto, olives, and country-style corn bread, as well as grilled codfish and fried pork cubes. The service is exceptional, with the owner, D. Olivia Pimenta, providing warm hospitality and making recommendations for the dishes. The restaurant is known for its rustic northern Portuguese cuisine, which is rich and flavorful. One reviewer raved about the rojões made in lard, a delicious soup with carrots and kale, and the roasted codfish served with extra virgin olive oil and garlic. The restaurant also offers a selection of local wines, including a 2021 red wine produced locally from old vines. For dessert, the "soups of tired horse" with cornbread and sugar is a delightful treat. Overall, Taberna Pimenta is a hidden gem that offers an authentic and welcoming dining experience.
