Pedroso de Acim, Spain
El Palancar
A family-run restaurant beside what locals call the 'conventico', reputedly the smallest monastery in the world, El Palancar earns its 2025 Michelin Plate through an updated approach to Extremaduran traditional cooking. The open grill is the centrepiece, while roasted goat and suckling pig (both pre-order only) speak to the region's pastoral supply chain. At €€, it sits well below the price tier of Spain's multi-starred rooms.
