DOC – Janela sobre o Douro
DOC , a space to "Taste, Dare and Communicate",is where Rui Paula, with a modern and inventive touch, makes the kitchen a historical laboratory based on several generations of culinary recipes. Here, every meal is a unique and special moment. Either from the glazed room or from the suspended terrace over the river, the view is breathtaking: the terraces of vineyards and shale, the tranquility of the riverside villages, the trains passing by on the other shore, momentarily breaking the stillness around the valley, large boats transporting tourists over International Douro... DOC stands out as an open window over this breathtaking scenery, designated as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2011.
