Jarana "Tapas & Enchidos" em Funchal

17/06/2025: What a find, just off the tourist track, this Mozambiqueian restaurant served freshly cooked food that was full of flavour. The host, Selson, was welcoming and attentive and helped us navigate the menu. Ignore any previous negativity. If you want fresh food cooked to order, it takes a little while longer. Just have a drink and a chat. It's well worth the wait. He will also spice the food to your taste, so whether your palate is bland or you are a spice fiend like me, you'll be catered for. We had the chicken samosas to start, followed by a coconut and peanut chicken curry for my wife and a t-bone steak for me (well, it was my birthday) that just melted in my mouth. The draft lager was delicious on a hot evening, and Selson made me a fresh jug of poncha that was awesome. We can't wait to go back when we return in a few months. Highly recommended.

10/06/2025: Lo agradecidos que estábamos de encontrarnos con este restaurante original en Madeira que sirve platos inspirados en Mozambique. Ubicado en una ubicación atractiva y menos turística al oeste de Funchal, este es un restaurante de estilo café relajado con un interior vibrante y moderno. El servicio es muy amable y el menú es interesante y muy diferente de las ofertas habituales bastante tradicionales que se encuentran en otros lugares de la isla. Compartimos samosas de verduras con una salsa de chile picante, dos currys diferentes con arroz de coco y una pannacotta de mango de postre. Todos estaban deliciosos. Nuestra comida para dos personas con una copa de vino, una botella grande de agua mineral y un café expreso fue de menos de 60 €. Excelente valor. Muy recomendable!
