​Atish Fernandes's journey began in Goa, where he ran two popular bars in Panjim’s historic Portuguese quarter of Fontainhas. It was during a holiday in Goa that he met his wife Inês—a true “Alfacinha” from Lisbon—and together they built a life over 11 years, raising their two children amidst the vibrant culture of India.

​Two years ago, post-pandemic, Atish and his family moved to Lisbon to be closer to their extended family and to reconnect with their Portuguese roots. Drawing on his rich experience and passion for Goan heritage, Atish created Bar da Graça——a cozy, friendly spot just a flight of stairs from one of Lisbon’s most beautiful miradouros. At Bar da Graça, every sip and bite tells a story of cultural fusion, honoring both his Goan legacy and his new home in Lisbon.
