Our Pre-Michelin Guide Spain and Portugal 2016 SuperChef Series by Gourmand Breaks – An insight into the world of some of the current Michelin star chefs in Spain and Portugal – is well underway. We previously showcased the current Michelin 2 star restaurants in Portugal (there are only 3): Belcanto, Ocean and Vila Joya.
There are currently no Michelin 3 star restaurants in Portugal so on now to the Michelin 1 star restaurants in Portugal. There are just 11 Michelin 1 Star restaurants in Portugal (at the moment) and we’ve already showcased: The Yeatman, Casa da Calçada and Fortaleza do Guincho.
Now we’re heading to the capital and a German chef who is no stranger to the Michelin starred restaurant World :
