The annual ranking of the World’s 50 Best Restaurants was announced yesterday. As usual, European restaurants dominated the list, although the number one restaurant, Central, is located in Peru and there is again increased worldwide representation. Only two US restaurants – Le Bernardin and Atomix, both in New York City – landed in the top 50.

Many chefs on the list list have written cookbooks, mainly about their highly regarded restaurants. These books are coffee-table expositions boasting incredible photography and often featuring highly complicated recipes that serve more as inspiration than practical instruction. Restaurants and/or chefs in the top 50 with cookbooks include:
- Central by Virgilio Martinez and Nicholas Gill (Central, #1 – this restaurant will now be ineligible for the award going forward)
- Disfrutar Vol I: The first book of Castro, Xatruch and Casañas, about the restaurant Disfrutar by Oriol Castro and Eduard Xatruch and Mateu Casañas (Disfrutar, #2)
- Etxebarri by Juan Pablo Cardenal and Jon Sarabia (Asador Etxebarri, #4)
- Books by Enrique Olvera (Pujol, #13)
- Elkano: A Culinary Landscape by Juan Pablo Cardenal and Aitor Arregi (Elkano, #22)
- Books by Bertrand Grébaut (Septime, #24)
- Combinações Improváveis (Bilingual Edition): Receitas do Programa de Televisão / Recipes from the TV show by by José Avillez (Belcanto, #25)
- Books by Björn Frantzén (Frantzén, #30)
