Kampai, a Japanese restaurant inspired by the Azores in Marvila

After a decade at Calçada da Estrela, Restaurant Kampai has moved and now is hosted by chef Chakall’s El Bulo Social Club in Marvila

Inspired by the Azores, Kampai was born ten years ago to celebrate the richness of the archipelago’s waters, combining Japanese cuisine with national ingredients.

The tradition of traditional Japanese cuisine now joins the flavors of Latin America, Italy and Portugal. We share the same way of looking at the kitchen with chef Chakall, with whom we already have a long relationship of friendship “, says João Pereira, agronomist and co-author of the concept.
