Like every end of the year, once again it is time to take stock of what has happened in recent months. Balance of the songs that we have liked the most, of the best destinations that we have visited or of the books that have hooked us the most.
It also ends a year in which we have been able to enjoy the best gastronomic proposals, twelve months in which gastronomy has continued to change and grow in our country, which already has nearly 79,000 restaurants spread throughout the national territory.
Once again this year, TheFork, the leading reservation platform in Europe, has produced its TOP100 2019, which has already become one of the gastronomic events in our country and a reference for thousands of foodies, who are ultimately the ones who book through of the app, they try the restaurant and give their opinion, having the last word when it comes to identifying the favorite restaurants of the year.
The application, which already has more than 19 million opinions, has taken into account different criteria for preparing this ranking, such as the scores obtained by the restaurants during this 2019, the volume of opinions during this year, the visits to the tab of the restaurant, the reservations generated, as well as the references in other prestigious local and national guides. In this way, the TOP100 restaurants are also part of TheFork's INSIDER selection, which highlights the best restaurants of the moment, including 60% of those awarded by the Michelin Guide in Spain.
For Pepe Rodríguez, Chef at El Bohío and Jury member of the MasterChef TV show, "it is a pride to appear among the 100 favorite restaurants of ElTenedor, especially since the list is made by the diners themselves who come to try our food, to get to know our room, to enjoy in El Bohío, and your opinion is very important to us".
This year the ranking is widely distributed throughout the country, with all the Autonomous Communities appearing in it except three. While El Bohío, in Illescas (Toledo), is the favorite restaurant of the year, Madrid is the city with the highest number of restaurants on the list (17) and Catalonia is the most represented Community (21).
