Asador Etxebarri in Spain has been named the best restaurant in the world, sparking debate among chefs about the influence of rankings on the culinary industry. The restaurant, led by chef Bittor Arguinzoniz, is known for its grilled dishes. Gaggan in Bangkok and Alchemist in Copenhagen ranked second and third, respectively. While the list boosts reservations and revenue, some chefs criticize the emphasis on visibility and promotion over culinary excellence. Ana Roš from Slovenia opted out of the ceremony to focus on her team and services. Organizers defend the ranking's integrity, stating it reflects expert opinions.
