Best Restaurants of the world: Who’s number one?

The World’s 50 (and 100) best restaurants of 2023 have been named by publication, The World’s 50 Best Restaurants.

The annual listing points out the very best culinary spots worldwide, providing placements from 1 to 50 and then 50 to 100. This year, the top spot according to the list, went to Peruvian restaurant, Central, which is located in Lima.

Central was followed by Disfrutar in Barcelona in second place and Madrid restaurant Diverxo in third.

South African restaurants

For those wondering if any South African gems scored spots on the prestigious list, two did, but only on the 50 – 100 listing. Both hailing from Cape Town, the two SA restaurants placed at number 94 and number 75.

The 94th spot went to the modern French-meets-Asian restaurant, La Colombe, while number 75 was taken by Japanese-inspired Fyn Restaurant.

Despite placing 75th, Fyn also won the Flor de Caña Sustainable Restaurant Award for 2023.

“With over 50 per cent of Fyn’s menu readily suitable for vegetarians or vegans and endemic vegetables taking centre stage, the restaurant is doubling down on its sustainable philosophy while also upholding the highest standards of flavour and technique, making it a worthy winner of the Flor de Caña Sustainable Restaurant Award 2023,” the publication said.
