About Chef Marcel Santos

Porto

Food has been my passion and my way of expressing myself for the past eight years. Throughout this journey, I’ve had the opportunity to work as a cook and, over the last three years, as both a Sous Chef and Executive Chef. Today, I’m proud to be living a dream by opening my own bistro.

I graduated in Culinary Arts from **The Art Institute in Austin, Texas**, where I discovered not only my culinary identity but also a deep appreciation for Texas cuisine. It was there that I fell in love with brisket and embraced the philosophy that great cooking knows no borders.

Brisket is undoubtedly the dish that best tells my story. More than a signature recipe, it is a tribute to my years of learning in Texas and a symbol of my culinary journey. At the same time, I take great pride in my sous-vide cod, a dish that reflects precision, balance, and craftsmanship, and one that has become a guest favorite thanks to its unique character.

My goal is to offer more than just a great meal—I want every guest to enjoy a memorable experience. My cuisine brings together the bold flavors of Texas, and the rich heritage and tradition of Northern Portugal, proving that unexpected combinations can create something truly extraordinary
