今年世界最佳饭店50强_报刊文摘
a british restaurant emerged as the best in the world in an annual list that also revealed britain -- a country often laughed at for its poor food -- is home to the largest number of top eateries.
the fat duck, in a village in berkshire, west of london, won the coveted title of top dining spot at the world’s 50 best restaurant’s 2005 awards on monday night, which also featured 13 other restaurants in britain alone. second and third in line were spain’s el bulli and the french laundry in california, while fourth and fifth went to tetsuya’s in sydney and gordon ramsay in london.
comprising entries from mainly developed countries, france had eight restaurants inside the top 50, while the united states only had six. asia was notably lacking in representation at the awards in london, with just one restaurant in hong kong, called felix, coming in at number 49.
critics, however, argued that the annual list -- compiled by the magazine restaurant and chosen by more than 500 chefs and experts -- was more of a guide on good places to eat rather than the best the world has to offer.
ella johnston, the editor of restaurant magazine, said the public’s growing enthusiasm for food drove britain’s dynamic restaurant scene -- which has moved far away from the stereotypical, bland image of meat-and-two-veg in the past.
jay rayner, a food critic in the weekly observer newspaper, however, argued that the list was an unfair reflection of the world’s dining industry.
"by no stretch of the imagination are 14 of the world’s best restaurants in the uk," he said in the observer’s sister guardian newspaper.
while agreeing that the fat duck deserved its number one rating and other eateries were tasty, rayner said: "the list is a collection of 50 good restaurants, some of which deserve to be there, some of which don’t.
johnston agreed that the list could be seen as "angloscentric", but she denied that it was biased as it had been chosen by an international panel that included prominent figures such as the chinese chef ken hom.

根据昨天restaurant杂志提出的一项排名，英国伯克郡的the fat duck在今年度世界最佳饭店50强排名中拔得最佳就餐地点的头筹。第二名、第三名、第四名和第五名分别为西班牙的el bulli、加利福尼亚的the french laundry、悉尼的tetsuya’s和伦敦的gordon ramsay。
参加评选的饭店多来自发达国家。在列入50强的饭店中，法国饭店有8家，美国饭店只有6家，而挤入50强的亚洲饭店更是少之又少，只有一家香港的felix，排名第49位。
评论家就该年度排名发表评论说，此项由restaurant杂志提出的排名是由500多名厨师和专家评选出来的，是对世界餐饮行业的不公正反映，只能作为关于好的就餐地点的一个指南，而这50家饭店并不一定就是世界上最好的。
