Our team brings curiosity, care, and craft to every moment. We welcome questions, invite conversation, and love sharing the stories behind what we serve. This is a place to connect, learn, and feel at home.
“What I love most about my role at Cozinha das Flores is making people feel at home. Creating a space where guests are genuinely welcomed and cared for has always been close to my heart. My days are certainly full. Balancing work, family, and all the beautiful unpredictability that life brings, but dedicating my energy to this place feels deeply worthwhile. The spirit of hospitality here is truly special: it transforms every moment into something meaningful, where stories are shared and memories are made. Being part of a team that brings this warmth to life is endlessly rewarding.”

“What excites me most here is having the freedom and trust to develop new ideas with my team every day. Working with outstanding seasonal, local products allows me to stay true to my pastry philosophy while celebrating the flavours of northern Portugal in a fresh and creative way. It’s incredibly rewarding to see guests enjoy our work, whether it’s a pastry with their morning coffee or a dessert on the CDF menu. Being part of a place where craft, collaboration, and quality all come together makes every early morning worth it.”
