MADE IN AZORES

NOW WITH EXTRA MOTHER VACA

The Mother Vaca Collective (MVC) is about funding and supporting projects in the Azores that showcase the best of the islands through the people that live here. Think of this as The Solar Branco Eco Estate Angel Fund, or just that we are simply formalising what we already do into a structure that will enable us to do even more.

Mother Vaca means Mother Cow in Portuguese. We are sure that is what you were thinking.

BALEIA BUS

RICARDO

SUSHILICIOUS

JOANA

I told Joana she was the best Sushi chef on the island. She didn’t (and still doesn’t) believe me. But many satisfied and happy customers back me up. Sushilicious is the best Azorean Sushi you will get while here on the island.
