Casa Marisa Restaurant
Casa Marisa
A guesthouse restaurant in the Fogo volcano crater, where chef Marisa blends French technique with local Cape Verdean cooking. Wines from the island's volcanic vineyards are available.
Located on the crater plain of Chã das Caldeiras at about 1,700 meters, at the foot of Pico do Fogo, this boutique guesthouse restaurant was rebuilt after the 2014 eruption. Chef Marisa trained for eight years with a French chef, and she cooks Cape Verdean food with French flavors. The daily set menu includes caramelized fig chicken, tuna and cachupa. The restaurant stocks wines from Fogo's wineries and Fogo coffee. The menu is smaller in the low season, and English is limited. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served; climbers can call ahead to order.
