Bring Back the Digestif.
Enjoy a post-dinner delight from our Liqueur Trolley.
In Portugal, drinking a digestif after a meal is a long-standing tradition. It is a way of connecting with history, embracing the culture of the region. Sharing a digestif with friends or family enhances social bonding and create a convivial atmosphere, making the post-dinner experience more memorable.
ā
As the name suggests, a digestif is specifically designed to help with digestion. Many digestifs contain herbs, spices, or botanicals that have digestive properties. These ingredients can stimulate the production of enzymes and promote the breakdown of food in the stomach, easing any discomfort or bloating that may occur after a heavy meal.
Explore different taste profiles and discover new flavours that complement or contrast with the meal you just had. It can be a delightful journey for your taste buds and a chance to expand your culinary horizons!

REVIEWS
Eu cheguei a Cape Town à dois anos atrás, e sendo um foodie comecei logo a explorar os restaurantes Portugueses. Qual o meu desapontamento de não encontrei nada que se possa considerar autenticamente Português. Pois bem a minha pesquisa e desilusão estão a fim pois a Baía Grande é um restaurante que da à culinária Portuguesa verdadeira justiça nesta ilustre cidade. Recomendo a Baía Grande a qualquer pessoa que queira matar saudades e comer bem :)

Quite possibly the best Portuguese restaurant in Cape Town. Where else can you get excellent gizzards, bifanas and bacalha assado?
