What is Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants?
Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants is a regional spinoff of the World’s 50 Best Restaurants, an annual list that aims to be a global guide to the best dining experiences around the globe. The first Asia edition took place in Singapore in 2013. The winners have traditionally been announced at a live ceremony in a host city every year, with the 2020 to 2022 editions taking place virtually due to the pandemic. The 2024 edition was the first time the ceremony has taken place in Seoul.
