And fourteen new restaurants across Spain have earned a place in the gastronomic bible after being award their first Michelin stars each under a ‘strategy of diversification’.
But the 2016 guide for Spain and Portugal will not include any new three Michelin starred establishments as, for the second year running, no new restaurants in Spain achieved the highest award.
But neither have any of Spain’s eight restaurants with three stars been downgraded, although nine restaurants in total were stripped of their stars and three others had closed down during the course of the year.
