Meet The Chef
José Diogo Costa
Born in Funchal, José Diogo Costa’s culinary adventures began in his childhood, line-fishing by day and cooking the catch with his family by night. His cuisine, locally-sourced, is committed to zero-waste production models. It pays homage to his hometown of Seixal and the long-forgotten producers once treasured by Madeiran ancestors.
At William Restaurant, enjoy fresh, local ingredients that encapsulate Madeiran and Portuguese gastronomy with a twist. Expect to savour Chef Diogo’s trout dish with grape leaves and fermented cucumber, or the physalis paired with exquisite local wine, selected by our talented sommelier Alberto Luz.
