Today, this year’s “World’s 50 Best Restaurants” list was announced and NYC was the cream of the crop. Acclaimed NYC restaurant Eleven Madison Park took the number one spot!
Most New Yorkers don’t need to be told that NYC is home some of the finest restaurants in the world. As you’d expect, a city with more than 8 million people like New York, has some amazing culinary diversity. That spells great dining.
Today, this year’s “World’s 50 Best Restaurants” list was announced. For those who aren’t in the know, it’s basically the Oscars of fine dining. Not only does NYC represent in the top 50, and thanks to Eleven Madison Park, we took the number 1 spot. What make’s it so special? As they say on their site:
It’s the perfect partnership of outstanding hospitality and exquisite food in an iconic setting in New York City that makes Eleven Madison Park the No.1 in The World’s 50 Best Restaurants. Co-owners Will Guidara and Daniel Humm have put their lives into breaking down the walls between dining room and kitchen, making sure the customer experience is harmonious from start to finish.
The other NYC restaurants to hit the top fifty are Le Bernardin and Cosme.
