It took me about 5 years to build up this list. The amount of work and attention to detail that these restaurants perform is incredible. In the same trip, I ate at Geranium and Noma. At the time, Geranium was #50 and Noma was #1. The two were almost indistinguishable. 2 fave restaurant in the US: Per Se and Alinea. Bravo to the chefs and staff. My culinary journey was nothing short of a blessing.
