• Three restaurants with two stars and 21 with one star is the balance of the pandemic 2021 edition of the Red Guide

As some football coach would say, the pandemic circumstances forced the 2021 edition of the Michelin Guide not to play the attack like other years, but to equip itself close to its goal to preserve what was there and, if a counterattack could be launched Well, better than better.

This has resulted in

a rather meager harvest but which, in the light of events, can be described as sufficient

.

There will be time in the future to resume the eternal controversy of whether the Red Guide is excessively stingy or not with Spanish gastronomy.

Only ten of the 17 autonomous communities (Ceuta and Melilla is a separate case) have received a new star, with

Catalonia and Galicia as great winners, with the provinces of Gerona and Pontevedra as their respective spearheads

.

Catalonia has won five awards, as it has won the second

finery

for the Girona-born

Bo.Tic

and for the Barcelona-based

Cinc Sentits

, in addition to three new stars: two from Girona,

Atempo

(SAnt Julià de Ramis) and

L'Aliança 1919 d'Anglès

(English ) and one from Tarragona,

Quatre Molins

.

Galicia accumulates the second from

Culler de Pau

, in O Grove, and three other novelties, also

Eirado

and

Silabario

(Vigo) from

Pontevedra

and

Miguel González from

Orense

, in the town of Pereiro de Aguiar.

Behind Catalonia and Galicia is Castilla y León

, with three contributions to the list: the very oenological

Ambivium

de Peñafiel (Valladolid), the Salamanca

En La Parra

and

Mu.na

in Ponferrada (León).

With two remaining Balearic Islands, represented by

Béns d'Avall

(Sóller, Mallorca) and

DINS Santi Taura

(Palma de Mallorca), and Aragón, in which Huesca has taken the

cake

with

Callizo

(Aínsa) and

Espacio N

(Esquedas).

The Valencian Community also officially adds two but "there is a trap":

La Salita

de Begoña Rodrigo already had a star and the only thing they have done has been to keep it after their change of location.

The one who is new in this square is

Baeza & Rufete from

Alicante

.

'Saddle', the only new star for the Community of Madrid.

The remaining stones have been distributed among Madrid, where the luxurious

Saddle

has been the only winner of a community that expected much more

, among other things because that is why it organized the gala;

Castilla-La Mancha, with the recognition of the work of the television Carlos Maldonado in his

Roots

of Talavera de la Reina, and Murcia, where Nazario Cano has taken very little time to put his newest

Odysseus

on the national map

.

The Basque Country, traditionally one of the most graceful in these galas, has had to settle for the star

of Paulo Airaudo's

Amelia

, which is exactly the same as

La Salita

in Valencia.

With regard to Portugal, just two jewels

, and both for Lisbon restaurants and, let's put it this way, foreign: the

Eneko Lisboa by

the Biscayan Eneko Atxa and the

100 Maneiras by

the Bosnian Ljubomir Stanisic.

In total, there have been 24 new stars that leave the panorama of Spain and Portugal in the following way:

11 restaurants with three;

38 with two and 203 with one

.

Very far from countries like France, Japan or even Germany.

But there will be time to talk about that next year, without a bug through ...
