Louvre Michaelense stands on the Rua António José d'Almeida in the middle of Ponta Delgada, the capital of São Miguel. The house keeps no website, so nothing here describes what it serves; what can be set down is the address, the hours and the name.

The name is worth a sentence. Michaelense is the adjective for São Miguel — a person or a thing of this island — so the house calls itself the island's Louvre, which is a large claim made with a straight face and tells you it is a room that holds things as much as it is a place to sit.

The hours describe an all-day room rather than a restaurant with services: eleven in the morning until midnight, without a break, six days a week. It is closed on Wednesday, which is the one thing to plan around. Thirteen hours in a stretch means a coffee at three in the afternoon and something at eleven at night are equally possible, and in a town where most kitchens shut between lunch and dinner that is the point.

Ponta Delgada is about half an hour west of Ribeira Chã along the south coast, and this street is in the old centre, a few minutes from the harbour front and the city gates.

You will find Louvre Michaelense at Rua António José d'Almeida 8, 9500-053 Ponta Delgada.
