The World’s 50 Best Restaurants has returned after a one-year hiatus.
In anticipation of the awards ceremony, which will take take place on 5 October in Antwerp, Flanders, the 51-100 list has been released.
The list sees venues located across 22 different countries and a total of 13 new entries; two of which are from Japan, the country with the most restaurants on the list (five).
“We’re thrilled to see 13 new entries join the list for the first time, as the gastronomic world continues to overcome the huge challenges wrought by the pandemic,” says William Drew, director of content for The World’s 50 Best Restaurants.
Our very own Attica and Brae from Victoria have made the list once again, sitting at 97 and 57 respectively.
More than 1,000 international industry experts are part of The World’s 50 Best Restaurants Academy, which determines the list via a voting system.
The World’s 50 Best Restaurants 2021 will be announced live at a ceremony and will also be streamed on the 50 Best Facebook and YouTube channels.
