The World’s Best Restaurants 2024: the list revealed

Table by Bruno Verjus, France

Table (pronounced in the French way) features a long counter designed like a wave that creates private nooks, plus an open kitchen. Enthusiastic diners can follow every gesture, see every plating, including the Colours of the Day – a daily changing dish of the most seasonal herbs and vegetables – and witness how Verjus serves large green asparagus poached with seaweed, or prepares lobster with sugar snap peas, nettle and caper remoulade. The friendly service, stunning wine and incredible food saw the restaurant achieve the rare feat of entering the top 10 on its first appearance in The World’s 50 Best Restaurants list in 2023, rising even higher in 2024.
