Noma, a waterside establishment in Copenhagen where chef Rene Redzepi serves Nordic dishes such as poached sea urchin and powdered cucumber, was last night named the World’s Best Restaurant for the third straight year.
The Fat Duck, which came first in 2005, slumped to 13th from fifth last year. It was overtaken by the chef’s new venue, Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, which entered the World’s 50 Best Restaurants chart at ninth. The Ledbury, another London restaurant, surged to 14th from 34th.
