NEW
YORK, April 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- FOOD &
WINE announces its 2024 Global Tastemakers awards, a celebration of
the best food and drink experiences and destinations in the U.S.
and abroad. From the best restaurants and bars to the best cities,
hotels, cruises, airports, and airlines for food and drink, the
results were curated and ranked by respected food and travel
experts from around the globe in collaboration with FOOD &
WINE editors. The complete lists and awards methodology are
now featured on foodandwine.com/globaltastemakers with highlights
in the May issue of FOOD & WINE, on newsstands April 19.
"From a boundary-pushing pizzeria in Caserta, Italy, to a
family-owned Thai restaurant in Los
Angeles and a fresh new Mexican-American cocktail bar
pulsating with its own rhythm in New York
City, this list spotlights the finest culinary experiences
around the world," said FOOD & WINE Editor in Chief
Hunter Lewis. "Each winner of our
Global Tastemakers offers a thoughtful and passionate approach to
cuisine, hospitality, and a true taste of place that will inspire
readers to book their next trip."
This year's results reveal a surprising mix of honorees in the
Best International Restaurants rankings, with Mérito in
Lima, Peru, taking the top
spot, followed by Peterman in Sydney and SodaBottleOpenerWala in
Mumbai, ranked No. 2 and No. 3,
respectively. Domestically, small cities made their mark with
Charleston, South Carolina,
and Portland, Maine, among
the top 10 U.S. Cities for Food and Drinks. On the Best U.S. Cities
for Bakeries list, Indianapolis captured the Plus One
designation, an editors' pick for honorable mentions of
up-and-coming spots they don't want readers to miss. A majority of
the Best Hotels in the U.S. for Food and Drinks are almost
exclusively outside of big cities, aside from Honolulu and New
Orleans.
FOOD & WINE editors introduced the 2024 Global Tastemakers
awards on foodandwine.com, saying: "We're here to celebrate the
culinary experiences that draw us to a destination from those
life-affirming meals that define a trip to creatively crafted
cocktails that elevate an evening with every sip, standout culinary
offerings at hotels to unforgettable bites on cruises — the flavors
we can't wait to share with fellow travelers."
