Three Dubai Restaurants Make it To Top 50 and 51:100 List
The World’s 50 Best Restaurants started in 2003, and since then, over 1,080 culinary experts, as well as its structured and audited voting procedure decide the best restaurants around the world. The world is divided into 27 voting regions- each headed up by an Academy Chair. The panel, in each region, is made up of food writers and critics, chefs, restaurateurs and well-travelled gourmets, each of whom has ten votes. And this time, for 2023, Central at Lima, Peru, bagged the first spot, Disfrutar in Barcelona came second, and Diverxo in Madrid took the third spot.

The seafood-focused cuisine features everything from a melting ‘candle’ of foie gras to clams with yuzu presented inside a semi-hollowed, burnt leek.
So if you haven’t been to these Dubai restaurants, definitely add them to your list.
