A new ranking of the world's 50 best restaurants was unveiled today in London, and a new restaurant took the top spot for the first time in several years.
Organized by Restaurant magazine and co-sponsored by Pellegrino and Acqua Panna, the World's 50 Best list is based on the votes of more than 900 international leaders in the restaurant industry.
There were a few newcomers this year, including Melbourne's Attica, which made its first ever appearance at the number 21 spot.
