World's 50 best restaurants 2012: Noma wins for third year in a row
René Redzepi's Danish restaurant rated world's best place to eat
For René Redzepi, champion of Nordic cuisine and forager par excellence, this year's list of the 50 best restaurants makes for very pleasing reading indeed: Noma, in Copenhagen, has been crowned the world's best place to eat for the third year in a row.
For his counterparts in Britain, however, the results – unveiled on Monday night at London's Guildhall – may prove more indigestible. Only three UK restaurants have made it into the top 50, the joint-lowest number in the list's 10-year history. And, for the first time, not one of them is in the top five. The Guardian
