“Northern Portugal and Northern Spain share not only climate and character, but also a similar culinary essence, which I love to blend for a combined local and international appeal. Rooted in both tradition and modernity, the menus we will present are based on premium-quality ingredients, a deep culinary heritage, and a universal spirit,” said Chef Manzano. “Not forgetting that wines will take a special role, combining the pureness of classic culinary with the elegance of Kopke wines.”

Manzano’s tasting menu at 1638 Restaurant & Wine Bar by Nacho Manzano will showcase haute cuisine paired with Kopke wines. Boa Vista Terrace by Nacho Manzano will offer a casual sharing concept.

“We are thrilled with this partnership, which brings a truly exceptional and distinctive culinary program to our hotel, and to Portugal’s North region,” said Francisco Viana Brito, general manager, Tivoli Kopke Porto Gaia Hotel. “With this collaboration, Nacho Manzano and Tivoli Kopke Porto Gaia will write a beautiful Portuguese story, inspired by both the Douro region and Asturias, Spain.”

Hotel Nice Beau Rivage Review

In the city Henri Matisse once called home — and where Musée Matisse holds his largest collection — Hotel Beau Rivage has a special connection with the artist, who first visited the hotel in 1916 and painted famous sea views from his room 89 in 1917. Today, framed Matisse prints — many brightly colored cut-out collages from the artist’s JAZZ collection — decorate its walls. Hotel guests also benefit from a partnership with the museum.
