A neighbourhood café in Alto de Santo Amaro, bought by António Dias in 1969 and run by his son Pedro, that became one of Lisbon's jazz epicentres without stopping being the local café for bicas, football and toasties. The weekly 'Jazz às Quintas' sessions, programmed by drummer João Pereira who grew up as a customer, draw a loyal crowd.
