In the second night of the QoMEX Conference, all participants are invited to a lively Brazilian style dinner at the restaurant Buffalo Grill at Parque das Nações, Lisboa. The restaurant has a very privileged view of the Ocenarium, one of the world's most spectacular aquariums. Many nearby constructions have an oceanic theme, such as water volcanos erupting, wave-shaped benches, exotic greenery and public art by Portuguese and international artists. You can also view the twin towers São Gabriel and São Rafael, which resemble ships and are named after two vessels of the Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama, the Atlantic Pavillion (concert arena), which is shaped like an upturned ship, and the fantastic Pavilhão de Portugal known for its remarkable undulating roof.
