The “O
Albertino” Restaurant started to be a tavern /
grocery, whose owner was Mrs. Áida Moreira , mother
of the current owner Mr. Albertino Moreira.
Mr. Albertino Moreira became fatherless at 10 years
and while his mother took care of the family
business, he adventured himself in other business.
He started to go to fairs commercializing live
stock, buying and selling wine. During the rest time
he helped his mother in the storage.
In the middle of 1969 he was sent to the Military
Service, going to Guinea.
As he had already the taste to cook, the function
that was designed to him was Cooker. During the
Military Service he had the opportunity to make lots
of friends, because he was a person that enjoyed
helping every time he could, and some times, when he
couldn’t also.
In 1971 he came from the Military Service and
dedicated to the family business, because at this
time, his mother has many duties. As she was a very
good person, she let the people take the goods by
ticking.
So she stayed without lot of money, because many
people didn’t pay the trusting goods.
He married in1972 with Mrs. Emilia Brazete that was
a great and important help for the business,
especially in the grocery.
Around 1975 Mr. Albertino began to make dainties to
the people of the village. People brought form their
houses the dainties and he cooked it. People ate his
cookies in a kind of companionship in his tavern,
and bought also there the wines to drink with.
As the business started to prosperity, he built a
room where people could eat the dainties and his
specialities.
Even without conditions to make it, he accepted
because it was a way to make some more money and
show his dainties. So he made form his house a
Quarter, where the troops slept and ate his dishes.
From that time his dishes became famous and some
important people from that time, such as Politicians
and Militaries, went to his storage, as for instance,
the Prof. Ramalho Eanes.
From that day on, people went, ate and came back
with other people, which make his tavern so small
for the quantity of people that visited it.
Seeing that, Mr. Albertino started to improve his
business, constructing another room.
In the middle of 1986 it happened something curious.
Mr.Albertino had not any documents to have the
restaurant open; either noticed that it was a
obligatory thing. So, there were the authorities
themselves that went to his restaurant and took care
of all the necessary documents and formalities for
him to continue with his restaurant open to the
people.
As we have already written, people went to his
restaurant to prove his dainties, that are still the
same today that were in that time, using the same
tactic in which every one can prove a little of each
dainty.
For the Chef Albertino’s happiness, the restaurant
has already its continuity assured with the help of
his son and son-in-law.
