Best 50 - "You can't be serious"
To quote John McEnroe. Some rankings are "spot on", like Le Bernadin, Arzak, Per Se & The French Laundry......... But St. John is better than Le B, you've got to be kidding. We've met and interviewed Fergus Henderson, and he's a wonderful man whose made a huge contribution to the food scene with his focus on disrespected animal parts. Likewise Momofuku Ssam Bar is 2 spots better that Martin Berasategui. How do the raters know El Bulli is absolutely the best year after year, when a reservation is harder to get than a personal audience with the Pope. This ranking thing is a dangerous game, as you may find if you let the Best 50 rankings affect your choices of where to go. Join the fun - let us know what you think.
