Portugal has ten new restaurants honoured with a Michelin star, with Fifty Seconds, by chef Rui Silvestre, winning its second star. The awards were presented at the third edition of the exclusively national gala, which took place in Funchal, Madeira, on Tuesday night.
In addition to Fifty Seconds, chef Angélica Salvador was recognised for her work as head of the In Diferente restaurant, becoming the fourth woman to receive a star in the country. Before Salvador, only Marlene Vieira (2025), Rita Magro (2025) and Maria Alice Marto (1993) had been awarded a Michelin star.
