Guess giving food poisoning to the majority of your guests for an entire week doesn't help you keep the #1 spot.

Last years list had a nice overview where you could easily see who rose and fell. This year you have to go one by one. Going through the list there were quite a few US based places that dropped, making room for up and coming Australasia and South American places it seems.

Grant did win the "Chef's Choice" award however.

I saw that, I also don't think this is the same list I was comparing against as last year. Maybe it was food and wine that Alenia was 6. I noticed a ton of Brazilian, Spanish, Australian, South African, and Mexican restaurants moved onto the list. 2 in Mexico city, 3-4 in Spain with it holding #1 which hasn't been done since El Bulli, and others.

Good to get a new # 1, from what I've heard the Roca-brothers really deserved it, and the restaurant at the top 10 are all so good in their separate ways so good to mix up the top. Had hoped to see the norwegian Maaemo on the list but its a though group of restaurants, a lot of good chefs!
