; that means no Eleven Madison Park, no Osteria Francescana, no Cellar de Can Roca; no Noma. It’s hard to imagine what the top 10 might look like without those perennial places . Using last year’s rankings as a predictor, Mauro Colagreco’s Mirazur in Menton, France; Gaggan Anand’s Gaggan in Bangkok; or Virgilio Martinez and Pia Leon’s Central in Lima are the most likely to take the top spot... and then never be on the list again.
The longer, 120-spot list does allow the organization to fete some legacy industry players despite the fact that their restaurants have mostly fallen out of favor. Among the big-name restaurants to fall past the 100 mark are Thomas Keller’s Per Se in New York City , Fergus Henderson’s St. John in London, and Pascal Barbot’s L’Astrance in Paris.
The organization’s press release around the long list emphasized diversity. Among the insights offered by the release under the sub-heading “The 51 - 120 list in numbers: developing diversity”: “51-120 boasts 21 new entries from 15 countries, marking a near 30% increase in new territories this year.” Twenty-five countries are represented in six continents , and four new countries are now on the list.
Another part of the release subtitled “Female Forward” notes that “there is a strong female presence” on the long list this year. To be clear there are six restaurants on this list with women at the helm in the kitchen. Six out of 70. If that’s worth calling out as “female forward,” it seems likely that the organization has failed in meaningfully diversifying its long list. But we’ll find out for sure when the top 50 is revealed in Singapore next week.54. D.O.M.

Count on Eater (who routinely minimizes lists while making their own) to champion her cause
How do you know she's not in the top 50?
Why is that conspicuous?
😡😡😡
If I were a rest owner in a heavily regulated area like NYC or Vegas, I'd be upset at some of the restaurants on the list that are rarely, if ever inspected or ever have to meet food safety standards. Without food safety criteria, the playing field is so unfair. foodsafetyfraud
