The building with the current number 6 of Rua 5 de Outubro, in Ericeira, was built in 1887, being owned by the same family since October 17, 1926.<\/p>\n

In the 30s and 40s of the last century, \u201cPens\u00e3o Central\u201d was established there. Its good reputation, hygiene and good food attracted many and notable guests: aristocratic families with big names or elements of the wealthy bourgeoisie, journalists, famous lawyers, politicians and some government ministers of the time.<\/p>\n

Pens\u00e3o Central closed its activity in the mid-1950s<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Interestingly, Pens\u00e3o Central also served as a training place for the players of the then mythical Associa\u00e7\u00e3o Acad\u00e9mica de Coimbra’s football teams, when this squad traveled to attend games near Lisbon.<\/p>\n

In addition, Pens\u00e3o Central’s dining room (which, in those days, showed on its facade a wooden sign with the inscription \u201cPens\u00e3o Restaurante Central\u201d) was regularly frequented by emblematic figures of Ericeira, such as Manuel Ortig\u00e3o Burnay, son of the doctor and politician, Dr. Eduardo Burnay, and nephew of the famous writer Ramalho Ortig\u00e3o. In their meals, Manuel Burnay and his wife Helena would not spare the \u201chomemade chicken soup\u201d \u2013 to which they always demandedt a few drops of lemon juice to be added\u2026<\/p>\n

Pens\u00e3o Central ended its activity in the mid-1950s, returning the building to its origins as a family home and, more recently, as a holiday home for its owners.<\/p>\n
