Spanish restaurant named the best in the world by TripAdvisor
TripAdvisor just revealed its 'Travellers' Choice Restaurants for 2016' and it’s in Spain.
A three-star Michelin eatery just outside the town of San Sebastian in Larste that is named after the chef, Martin Barsategui, beat all of the other restaurants in the world for the top spot.
It’s the second time the Spanish bistro, which serves modern Spanish cuisine, has won.
Some of the most popular items on the menu include red mullet with edible scale crystals, fennel with saffron and liquid baby squid bonbon as well as young pigeon, charcoal roasted at a low temperature with potato and truffle bites and forgotten vegetables.
In second place was French restaurant Maison Lameloise in Chagny followed by Maison Lameloise, also in France.
