Osteria Francescana was named the best eatery on the planet at the World's 50 Best Restaurant Awards, an annual tradition that has become beloved—if lightly regarded—in the culinary world.
Last year's winner, El Celler de Can Roca, dropped to second place, while Modena, Italy's Osteria Francescana won raucous applause for its win. Helmed by Massimo Bottura, it's the first Italian restaurant to make it to No. 1.
