Tartares and ceviches workshop in Algarve for anyone who wants to learn how to prepare raw fish and meat with real professional technique, precision and creativity. Led by Miguel Lima, founder of Sweet Algarve, this two-hour hands-on session takes you from classic Peruvian ceviche to Asian-style tuna tartare, with an Algarvian twist woven throughout. Groups of 8 to 15

The workshop covers four distinct preparations from different culinary traditions: a classic Peruvian ceviche using the traditional acid-based curing technique, an Algarvian tropical ceviche that brings local ingredients and flavours into the conversation, an Asian-style tuna tartare with clean precise knife work and bold seasoning, and a classic steak tartare using the techniques professional chefs use to handle raw meat safely and confidently. Miguel guides you through each one with the kind of detail and context that makes the difference between following a recipe and actually understanding what you are doing. The session ends with a tasting of all four preparations and water is included throughout, with other drinks available at the bar.
