The dining room faces the city and the Douro River, and the terrace, is perfect for watching the sunset. And a "more fun" gastronomic proposal are the hallmarks of the chef's new restaurant. The restaurant's goal is to bring healthier, tasty nutrients with a good presentation. 



To sit at the table of Mira Mira restaurant - the seventh to open in the cultural complex World of Wine (WoW), in Vila Nova de Gaia, you have to go up to the second floor of the new Museum of Fashion and Textiles. The location is not by chance.

The menu of the new restaurant, which has fashion as a backdrop, serves healthy signature cuisine to be shared - "in small portions", adds the chef -, with the maximum of seasonal ingredients.

Located in the World of Wine, it offers the signature of the award-winning chef of The Yeatman, Platinum Fork and holder of two Michelin stars, in a simpler and more relaxed version.

Favorable Location: World of Wine complex

The Mira Mira restaurant is part of the Fashion & Design experience. It is a haute cuisine restaurant, whose menu is prepared with rigorous nutritional care and meticulous choice of ingredients. In addition, and for the parade of flavors to be more fun, the concept is based on sharing.
