Fifty Seconds
Lisbon, Portugal
Perched 120m above ground level in Lisbon’s landmark, 145m-tall Vasco de Gama tower, 10-table Fifty Seconds is a beacon of haute gastronomy, named for the time it takes to take the elevator to the glass-wrapped Nuno Rodrigues-designed dining room. The 14-course tasting menu is the best way to experience chef Rui Silvestre's culinary prowess, which seamlessly fuses Portuguese and international flavours, with dishes that look almost too good to eat. The menu is built on the best of local, seasonal ingredients, featuring smoked eel with massala and beetroot and Balfego tuna, Oscietra caviar with wasabi. Masterful wine pairings include bins from boutique producers such as Luis Pato and Quinta do Cardo.
