The World’s 50 Best Restaurants
The World’s 50 Best Bars – No. 19 to be found in Bangkok: Mahaniyom Cocktail Bar (7. January 2023)
The Mahaniyom Cocktail Bar is among The World’s 50 Best Bars, and I was curious to experience what it has to offer. And frankly, it is not in a place you’d just walk in since it’s located on the second floor of a restaurant (which is rated quite well as well), but it is worth […]
A truly mind-blowing sensory experience with music pairing in The World’s 50 Best No. 17: Restaurant Gaggan Anand (6. January 2024)
Visiting Gaggan Anand has been on my to do list since December 2018. Back then, I tried to get a table at ‘Gaggan’ when in Bangkok, but it turned out to be impossible. Well, to be fair, I get why. If he was only close to what he offers today, then it’s no surprise that […]
A whole experience catered around the love story of a Mexican and an Indian: Restaurant Ms. Maria & Mr. Singh (5. January 2024)
The Ms. Maria & Mr. Singh is the second restaurant of Gaggan Anand and is located right on top of his awarded restaurant ‘Gaggan Anand’. The place is quite different from his downstairs place, but more about that the next day. The Ms. Maria & Mr. Singh is a mixture of Mexican and Indian flavours […]
A nice, but not entirely convincing lunch experience at No. 28 of The World’s 50 Best Asia: Restaurant Mingles (15. December 2023)
Mingles is listed on The World’s 50 Best Asia restaurants, so I figured to try this as well. The “Signature Lunch” (280’000 KRW) comes in a bit cheaper than at the Mosu, but I suppose this is due to the fact that the Mingles has ‘just’ two stars instead of three. The lunch started with […]
A delicious experience at No. 15 of The World’s 50 Best Asia 2023: Restaurant Mosu (14. December 2023)
Given the Mosu is on the 50 Best of the World Asia list, I had to give it a try. Frankly, the prices are definitely on the more expensive side of things with the “Tasting Menu” accounting for 370’000 KRW and the full “Wine Pairing” for 250’000 KRW. Hence, I was a bit skeptical if […]
An outstanding lunch experience at No. 75 of The World’s 50 Best: Restaurant Fyn (2. December 2023)
Fyn is the second South African restaurant on The World’s 50 Best and currently ranked No. 75. Personally, I must be honest, I found the experience at the La Colombe better than the Fyn, but the Fyn is definitely also up there in terms of overall quality and experience. Funny enough, somehow I ended up […]
An absolutely mind-blowing experience in No. 94 of The World’s 50 Best: Restaurant La Colombe Constantia (30. November 2023)
The La Colombe is one of the two restaurants in South Africa, which is among top 100 of The World’s 50 Best, currently rated at No. 94. The drive through Constantia is already quite nice and once you find the entry off the main road to the La Colombe, you realise why this place is […]
A truly amazing culinary journey through the Indian cuisine at The World’s 50 Best No. 11: Restaurant Trèsind Studio (4. May 2023)
When I visited the Trèsind Studio back in May 2023, the restaurant was No. 2 on The World’s 50 Best MENA list – and since this visit, it has further increased its ranking, now being No. 11 of The World’s 50 Best – and I must say, it’s a well-deserved promotion. It’s a bit uncommon […]
