Hot off the presses - The Times (London) has published their 2009 edition of the 100 Best Eating Establishments in the World. Visit their site for more details - who’s new on the list, who moved up or down and most shocking - which celebrity super chef fell off the list completely.

I’ve learned while traveling in Greece, give yourself extra time if you are riding a ferry. Sometimes they don’t run! I got stuck on Mykonos - one of life’s better hardships!

My good friend visited no 9 Pierre Gagnaire in Paris and he was talking about it maybe for two years. He said he had never eaten anything like in that restaurant! I really had to be delicious because he is not that type who likes everything.
Why there is no restaurant from india ?
Hi Julie,
It was great meeting you at SOBcon ‘09.
You were thinking about coming out to our live event on May 15 and 16. Are you still coming? If so, email me or contact me with your address so I can mail you tickets.
I look forward to getting to know you better.
Have a great day!

Hi Julie,
Great List!
No.22 Cracco is in Milan.
No.28 Gambero Rosso is in Santa Flavia.
I guess there are two great restaurants missing both in Rome: La Pergola by Heinz Beck at the Cavalieri Hilton Rome & the Mirabelle at The Splendide Royal Hotel.
Thanks a Lot.

Place 26: it’s kruishoutem in stead of krushoutem.
Thx for the list!
Great list! I’ve been to a number of them, including The Fat Duck, French Laundry, L’Atelier… (Paris), Le Quartier Francais, Nobu, Le Chateaubriand. All were amazing, but the French Laundry was my favorite!
