Noma Claims #1 Again as Best Restaurant in the World

The “World’s 50 Best Restaurants” announced Denmark’s Noma as the world’s top restaurant for the third year in a row today in London. The votes were cast by members of the Academy representing 27 regions around the world. Each region consists of a 31-member panel made up of food critics, chefs, restaurateurs and gastronomes.

Other U.S. restaurants that made the top 50 list were New York’s Daniel (#25), Momofuku Ssam Bar (#37), Yountville, Calif.’s The French Laundry (#43) and Los Gatos, California’s Manresa (#48).
