The rating of “The World’s 50 Best Restaurants”
is considered the Oscar of fine dining. 20 minutes (a Swiss online newspaper) attended together with star chef Nenad Mlinarevic the Award Night in Bilbao.
Rating systems such as Michelin stars or Gault Millau points have been deciding for decades to be or not to be gourmet restaurants. Since 2002, “The World’s 50 Best Restaurant” has also been a part of the game and presents a yearly list of the 50 best restaurants around the world.
Despite criticizing the non-transparent rating methodology, the rating of “50 Best” has become one of the most respected gourmet food rankings, as shown last week at this year’s “50 Best” Awards Night in Basque Bilbao. Not one of the 50 listed top chefs missed being part of the award ceremony.
A high rating means little freedom and being in a pressure cooker!
Also part of the party: the Swiss star chef Nenad Mlinarevic (37), who earned two Michelin stars and 18 Gault Millau points for the restaurant Focus in the Parkhotel Vitznau. He said goodbye to the star kitchen last year, set up his own business, first opened a pop-up restaurant in Zurich (Stadthalle) and now with two partners opened the Bauernschänke in Zurich’s Niederdorf.
“Without awards, I am free of pressure and can use my knowledge in many ways”, Mlinarevic explains his decision.
Das Rating von «The World’s 50 Best Restaurants»
gilt als der Oscar des Fine Dining. 20 Minuten war mit Starkoch Nenad Mlinarevic a der Award Night in Bilbao.
Bewertungssysteme wie Michelin-Sterne oder Gault-Millau-Punkte entscheiden seit Jahrzehnten über Sein oder Nichtsein von Gourmet-Restaurants. Seit 2002 mischt auch «The World’s 50 Best Restaurant» in diesem Spiel mit und präsentiert jährlich eine Liste mit den 50 besten Restaurants rund um den Globus
Das Rating von «50 Best» hat sich trotz Kritik an der intransparenten Bewertungsmethodik zu einer der meistbeachteten Ranglisten für Feinschmecker gemausert, wie sich letzte Woche an der diesjährigen «50 Best»-Award Night im baskischen Bilbao zeigte. Kein einziger der 50 gelisteten Topköche liess es sich nehmen, an der Verleihung präsent zu sein.
Eine hohe Bewertung bedeutet wenig Freiheiten und viel stress!
Ebenfalls mit von der Partie: der Schweizer Starkoch Nenad Mlinarevic (37), der für das Restaurant Focus im Parkhotel Vitznau zwei Michelin-Sterne und 18 Gault-Millau-Punkte erkochte. Von der Sterneküche hat er sich letztes Jahr verabschiedet, sich selbständig gemacht, erst ein Pop-up-Restaurant in Zürich (Stadthalle) und jetzt mit zwei Partnern die Bauernschänke im Zürcher Niederdorf eröffnet.
«Ohne Auszeichnungen bin ich frei von Druck und kann mein Wissen vielfältig einsetzen», erklärt Mlinarevic seinen Entscheid.
