Casa de Pasto Alentejana
Évora, Portugal
The read// why locals go
Casa de Pasto Alentejana is a budget Alentejo kitchen on Rua de Machede, cooking the everyday Évora rather than the Évora of the guidebooks. The casa de pasto is Portugal's plainest restaurant format and its most durable: a short daily list, no ceremony, food answerable to the region and to the people who eat it twice a week. Here that means Alentejo cooking in its home version — the slow, bread-led, herb-heavy tradition of the plains — priced for regulars rather than for visitors, with a main course landing around €14. Nothing about the room asks for attention. Inside Évora's walls, this is the kind of address you only find by looking.
