El Bulli, Best Restaurant in the World, Spain

Written by Mr Five Star
It's not hard to see why El Bulli, which also topped the poll in 2002, remains our judges' favourite. The dazzling dishes that Adrià continues to conjure are by now the stuff of legend. El Bulli has built its reputation on its astonishing inventions, on pioneering techniques that yield results on the table that surprise, provoke, engage your sense of humour and taste divine. It's a cuisine that differs from others, according to Adrià, in that "it demands psychological reflection". In other words, you don't come to El Bulli for a feed, you come for an experience. With an approach to food as avant-garde as Adrià's, it's understandable that so much that is written about El Bulli centres on the kitchen. But food, as in any other restaurant, is just one part of the equation. The contribution the front-of-house team makes to the success of El Bulli is immense. You won't find better service than this anywhere in the world. The staff are absolutely top-notch, professional, knowledgeable, charming and, in an environment in which you're being presented with food the likes of which you'll never have seen before, they put you instantly at ease. And then there's the location. A small bay on the Costa Brava, with wooded hills all around. Scenery that thrills the senses almost as much as the food does With such ingredients, it's small wonder that El Bulli remains number one. The question is: can anyone topple it? Behind the stove: Chef-patron Ferran Adrià What they say: "El Bulli is the very home - the gleaming apex - of culinary innovation. The unexpected is to be expected, and only a fool (or an unsophisticate) would arrive here anticipating anything less. Yes, this is incredibly cool. Magical, even." Rachel Cook, The Guardian.
