I made this film about Alex and Cajsa when I was in Lisbon in november 2022. We had dinner at their restaurant on the friday night of our trip.
After service we sat down with them, had lots of home made limoncello and just talked about everything from vegan food to ancient philosophers.
I ended the night saying: "I have to make a film about you".

So two days later we met at the place, at 2pm and started filming Alex making the ragu. We had a super fun day, with lots of talking and red wine.

This place is one of a kind. If you are in Lisbon. Go there!
For me, it was the best italian food I ever had. Vegan or not.

I had the lasagna.

Let me know if you followed Alex recipe and how it turned out for you. The first thing I did when I got back home editing was to order the wine and try it out 😀😀

Thank you SO MUCH for making this video. I've been to Al Sanpietrino at least 5 times by myself or bringing friends (none of them are vegan, only me) and everyone is blown away with the flavours. This is by far my favorite restaurant ever and whenever I fly from the Portuguese island where I leave (where btw I have a small vegan baking business), I always make sure to visit Al Sanpietrino. I'm definitely going to make this ragu, it looks stunning as always. Please continue supporting Al Sanpietrino bc it's not only excellent, but it also manages to be cozy and stay true to their roots. Give all of their dishes a go, everything is delicious. Awesome video, the storytelling and cinematography are impeccable, you really did them justice. Keep up the good work!
Lots of love

I LOVE Alex, he is such an amazing character! This movie is so nice. I’m really looking forward to following your work.

I love how he explains how he thinks about cooking it, not with time but hearing how it sounds when frying or something like that. It’s really relaxing to watch

I live in Portugal, but I have rarely been in Lisbon… I should go to this restaurant once.
I’ll save it on Google maps

Excellent video! Having eaten a most excellent meal there this year and meeting the couple, you’ve really captured the special essence. And thanks for the front seat view of that spectacular ragu.

A great joy to watch (from Germany). And I love what Alex said about childhood memories. He's using these memories for extra seasoning. :)

Great video! I had the best dinner of my life in this restaurant. So glad you also made a video about them and more people end up visiting Alex and Kasja. Everyone must eat to Al Sanpietrino at some point in their lives <3

Gud så himla bra Jag älskade varenda sekund av den! Alltid fett med vegancontent, men det här var så himla mycket mer än andra Youtube-videos. Så galet mycket värme, kärlek och nörderi. Jag måste åka dit och käka nu! Ser sjukt mycket fram emot mer videos på din kanal! 😊
