At The World’s 50 Best Restaurant 2023 awards ceremony, held last night in Valencia, Spain, the Lima-based restaurant Central took first place. Four French restaurants feature in the ranking.

 

On Tuesday evening, the Central restaurant, located in the Peruvian capital Lima, was named best restaurant in the world 2023 by the prestigious World’s 50 Best Restaurant ranking. The award recognizes the restaurant’s cuisine, which “celebrates the diversity of ingredients” as well as “the history and traditions of Peru”.

 

Central, the iconic restaurant of chefs Virgilio Martinez and Pía León, succeeds 2022 winner Geranium in Copenhagen, which joins the ranks of the Best of the Best.

 

 

The 50 Best ranking, which has existed since 2002, is carried out by 1080 independent experts (chefs, specialist journalists, restaurateurs, etc.) under the aegis of British Restaurant magazine, part of the William Reed press group. The ceremony was held in Valencia, Spain.

 

“Thank you to everyone who has accompanied us in the life of Central and followed our journey since we opened”, said the restaurant’s owners on social networks.

“We represent a territory, a diversity and a culture”, exclaimed Virgilio Martinez, emphasizing the importance of this award for Peru and Latin America. The award, which goes to the establishment repeatedly voted Latin America’s Best Restaurant, raises the profile of Peruvian gastronomy, as well as its culture and art.

 

Spain, this year’s host country, performed very well in this 2023 edition. Second place went to the Barcelona restaurant Disfrutar, run by chefs Oriol Castro, Eduard Xatruch and Mateu Casañas. It was followed by two other Spanish restaurants: Madrid’s Diverxo (3rd) and the Basque Asador Etxebarri (4th).

 

Four French restaurants

 

Four French restaurants feature in the list unveiled this Tuesday by the World’s 50 Best, compared with just three last year.

France is also well represented at 24th place by the Septime restaurant, located in the capital’s 11th arrondissement, already in the top 30 in 2022 and 2021, and offering a lunch menu at 70 euros.

 

A little further on, Paris is represented once again with Plénitude, by chef Arnaud Donckele, ranked 36th. This restaurant, located in the center of the capital, offers menus at around 400 euros. Finally, the last French representative to enter the ranking is in Pas-de-Calais, in 48th place. This is La Grenouillère, a luxury restaurant and hotel in La-Madelaine-sous-Montreuil, a few kilometers from Le Touquet.
