There are twelve new restaurants in the 51-100 positions of the World’s 50 Best Restaurants list which returns this year after the cancellation of last year’s events.
Ahead of the official announcement that will take place in Antwerp, Belgium on 5 October, the World’s 50 Best Restaurants has already released the restaurants that have made it to the second half of the list.
Among them are 12 new restaurants. The highest new entry is Alchemist, the Copenhagen restaurant the restaurant by Rasmus Monk.
Other new entrants are Le Du in Thailand, Sazenka in Japan, Willem Hiele in Belgium, Brat in the UK, El Chato in Colombia, Le Clarence in France, Ikoyi in the UK, Mil in Peru, Fyn in South Africa, Kjolle in Peru and L’Effervesence in Japan.
It is still early to draw conclusions on the full list given the top 50 still need to be known. However, there are three restaurants that have clearly fallen from the top 50. These are Schloss Shauenstein, De Librije and Alinea.
Earlier The World’s 50 Best Restaurants had already nominated Pia Leon of restaurant Kjolle, Central and Mil as the Female chef of 2021. Pia runs her own restaurant Kjolle in Lima, Peru and has been the driver together with her husband Virgilio Martinez of Central and now Mil.
In total, the couple could be named the power couple of the World’s 50 Best restaurants list given they have two new entries in this year’s list and their flagship restaurant Central is likely to figure again among the top positions of the list. The pair are also working on new restaurants in the Amazon, Russia and Japan.
There are a number of restaurants within the 51-100 position that have moved forward considerably. Among these are St Hubertus in San Cassiano Italy, The Jane in Antwerp, Oteque in Brazil, il Ristorante Luca Fantin in Tokyo and Vea in Hong Kong
Meanhile Ikoyi, which last week was listed as the one to watch made it to the list in 87th place. 2019’s one to watch was Lido 84 which does not figure in the 51-100 list which seems to indicate that it will be in the top 50 this year.
