"Famous chef José Avillez owns a restaurant empire in town. With its two Michelin stars, his restaurant Belcanto, at the heart of the charming neighborhood of Chiado, is the most acclaimed fine dining venue in Lisbon. Here, the chef and his team serve modern Portuguese dishes a la carte or on two conceptual tasting menus (Classics and Evolution). Explore Portugal through his creative takes on tasty classics like suckling pig and lupini beans (a Portuguese obsession) with ajo blanco and horse mackerel." - Rafael Tonon, Miguel Pires
