...and staying in Spain

The prestigious S.Pellegrino "World's 50 Best Restaurants 2010" has just been unveilled. A good place to look at the list is HERE in the Guardian travel section. You can roll over each one and get a brief description and with a neat little interactive map. El Bulli which would be well known to users of this library has been knocked off the number 1 spot by Noma in Copenhagen, which i hadn't heard of. The chef is Rene Redzepi so we'll see if he has any books out and order for the library. In terms of national representation Spain has 4 of the top 10 spots (any connection between this and my recent extended stay in Spain are purely coincidental. Anyway 2 are in San Sebastian and 2 close to Girona -- miles and kilometers away from Madrid.) The USA has 3 in the top 10 and Denmark, Italy and the UK (Fat Duck) 1 each. Gotta Catch 'Em All
