What's New at Sense of Coffee This Autumn
In mid-September three new dishes joined the lunch section at both Sense of Coffee in Parque das Nações and Sense of Coffee & Wine in Baixa. Like the rest of the kitchen, they are served all day, from 9:00 to 16:00. Below: the new dishes, what stays from summer, and every offer running right now.
Three new dishes
Bacalhau à Brás · €14
One of Lisbon's own dishes. The story goes that it is named after a tavern keeper called Brás in Bairro Alto. Salt cod, thin crisp potatoes and eggs, cooked together until the eggs just set.
Our chef keeps the classic and adjusts the balance: the eggs stay creamy, the cod stays tender, and a heap of shoestring potatoes keeps its crunch on top. It is finished with an egg yolk, pea shoots and a spoonful of black olive tapenade, our take on the olives that traditionally come with Brás.
What's in it: cod · shoestring potatoes · egg · onion · garlic · parsley · black olive tapenade

Raclette-Dog · €14
Raclette comes from the Alps, where the cheese is melted by the fire and scraped onto potatoes. We put the same idea in a soft brioche bun: a sausage, melted raclette, crisp pickled cucumber and shoestring potatoes on top. The sausage is your choice of pork or chicken.
What's in it: brioche bun · pork or chicken sausage · raclette · pickles · shoestring potatoes

Pork Cheek · €14
The most autumnal of the three. The pork cheek is cooked sous-vide for several hours, then served on a bright corn curry with a thread of herb oil and topped with blackcurrant, which brings a little sharpness against the richness.
What's in it: pork cheek · corn curry · blackcurrant · vegetables

Summer drinks are staying
Lisbon is still warm, so the cold menu is not going anywhere yet. Coconut cloud: coconut water under cold spirulina foam. Rooibos with hibiscus: iced rooibos infused with hibiscus and pink peppercorns for 16 hours. Iced Ube latte with purple yam and vanilla. Two lemonades, Passion and Green Breeze, plus espresso tonic and cold brew.
Batch brew refills for €1
Your first batch brew is the usual €3.50. Every refill after it is €1, in your own cup or ours. Weekdays from 12:00 to 16:00, at both cafés.
Coffee & Cake for €8.50
Any coffee up to €4.50 with any dessert up to €7, for €8.50. Every day from 13:00 to 16:00, at both cafés. The exact list of coffees and desserts in the set is on the menu page of Parque das Nações and Baixa.
