Our favourite places for FADOS ! This small fado house resides in the old chapel of Dona Rosa Palace – a spectacular room covered with seventeenth century tiles from the floor to the ceiling. On Mondays and Wednesdays sings Carminho – the new revelation of traditional fado. Food is OK but if you don’t have dinner there it’s difficult to have a seat to listen to fado. It’s one of the few places where the fado begins after dinner, around 11:30. You can go at this time for a drink and squeeze into a corner to enjoy the melancholic voice of the guitar.
