良好印象(Favorable Impression media,簡稱Fimmedia)很榮幸成為首家華文媒體、受邀參與英國權威飲食雜誌《餐廳》2016年度世界50大最佳餐廳(The World's 50 Best Restaurants 2016)排行榜頒獎典禮,在紐約華爾街現場,見證了最佳餐廳殊榮、首度由義大利餐廳Osteria Francescana奪得。(內含HD影音)
今年亞洲餐廳在前10大最佳餐廳中只佔一席,就是維持排名第8的東京Narisawa。
進步最多的分別是是香港置地文華東方酒店的法國餐廳Amber,由荷蘭籍主廚Richard Ekkebus掌舵的這家餐廳,好評不斷,終於由去年的第38位,
升至第20名,「去年名列第10名的曼谷Gaggan跌到23名令人意外,但是Amber和Restaurant ANDRÉ的大幅度成長,表現不俗。」食評家Susan Jung表示
台灣名廚江振誠位於新加坡的Restaurant ANDRÉ餐廳成績也不惶多讓,已連續6年登榜,今年公布名列第32名(也是有史以來最佳名次)時,比去年整整進步了12名,當主廚Andre Chiang起身致意,現場掌聲不斷,後勢看漲。
「我總是說這個名單不只是排名、或是誰在誰之上,來這個活動就像是參加一個世界性廚師的聚會,來見世界各地來的朋友意義大於誰得第幾名!」江振誠說。
今年最大贏家當然是擠下去年冠軍西班牙羅卡兄弟餐廳(ElCeller de Can Roca)登上王座的Osteria Francescana,由名廚Massimo Bottura掌舵,也是首家獲此殊榮的義大利餐廳。
獲獎前呼聲就很高的Bottura,聽到自己是冠軍時仍喜不自勝,帶著準備好的義大利國旗上台,擁著在紐約生長的太太Gilmore,喜愛藝術的他說,「優秀的餐廳猶如博物館,有著教育的功能,顧客在這裡駐足,我們利用烹飪技法來連結農業,真正的創造者是農人與他們的食材,透過我們(指廚師)把其呈現出來。」
名單上最令人驚訝的是,丹麥哥本哈根餐廳Noma自2009年來始終保持前3名的名次,今年卻落居第5。部分評審認為,總廚René Redzepi帶著團隊今年年初在澳洲Syney長達三個月的客座,導致在丹麥的餐廳關閉數月,是排名之所以掉落的主因。
而今年的餐廳大贏家是主辦地主國美國,第3名正是獎落美國紐約的Eleven Madison Park(簡稱EMP),「我覺得自己就是要專心經營在紐約的市場。」主廚Daniel Humm表示。
堅持在高級法式餐飲外,還要融入紐約風格的味道在內,讓EMP不但是米其林3星、同時也擁有紐約時報給出的4顆星好評,殊榮不斷。
人氣很高的芝加哥餐廳Alinea,從去年的26名躍升到15名,成績不俗,曾生過大病的主廚Grant Achatz對獎項看得很淡,卻很開心能參與這場盛會,他說,「也許之後能在芝加哥、在上海、東京、新加坡…等地舉辦,這就像是一個廚師聚會的大party!」
另一家紐約法式餐廳Le Bernardin則小降幾名,這次是No.24。而Estela餐廳首次入榜,奪得44名,去年得到One To Watch獎項的舊金山 Saison,一入榜就來勢洶洶,獲得第27名。
法國蔬食之神Alain Passard 主掌的餐廳Arpège獲得第19名,雖然輸給第6名的法國Mirazur,不過另外獲得終身成就獎的Alain Passard,上台時還慎重其事地準備講稿,給于大會十足的面子!
得到One to Watch的東京Den主廚Zaiyu Hasegawa,是備受期待的新興主廚。
特別值得一提的是,典禮前我們訪問了知名三星主廚Yannick alléno,在典禮後的party遇上了另一名法國廚神Alain Duccase,兩人的巴黎米其林三星餐廳雖在50大之外,卻也紛紛現身紐約,足見在米其林評選之外,法國主廚們也愈來愈重視世界50大的排名。
西班牙餐廳依然是50大餐廳的主流,名列第16 名的Azurmendi由主廚Eneko Atxa掌舵,近來被評選為歐洲第一名廚師的他,在中生代廚師中依舊被看好;特別值得關注的是西班牙大廚Ferran Adrià的弟弟Albert Adrià,他的餐廳Tickets大幅上升13名、來到第29名,已有接班架勢。
事實上北歐餐廳在今年整體表現略微受挫,除了丹麥的Geranium重新進榜,晉升到第28名外,另一位重新進榜的則是挪威的De Librije,位居第38名;丹麥的Relae第40名、瑞典餐廳Fäviken第41名。
還有特別值得關注的是第33名的澳洲墨爾本餐廳Attica,明年將是世界50大餐廳主辦國,也是名廚的 Ben Shewry勢必成為大家關注的焦點,不過他顯得老神在在,認為不需要給自己太大的壓力。
南美洲的主廚,以祕魯餐廳表現最為亮眼,祕魯的Central餐廳仍然是第4名,主廚Virgilio Martinez仍然引領風潮
另一間同樣在祕魯的Maido日裔主廚津村光晴(Mitsuharu Tsumura)今年也取得了第13名的好成績,再加上第30名的Astrid y Gastón,祕魯菜幾乎已成為潮流趨勢。
儘管50大餐廳排名仍有爭議,但正如同江振誠主廚告訴《New York Times》的話,「這是一個世界餐飲的潮流和指標,因為這些世界的廚師們選擇跳脫出自己的舒適圈,迫使自己往前進,領導未來廚藝的新視野。」
「日本餐廳的表現只能說持平,龍吟(Nihonryori RyuGin)雖然名次跌到No.31,但像這次獲得特殊矚目獎項的的東京Zen餐廳,我認為未來很看好。」中村孝則表示。
Susan Jung表示,亞洲的評審和世界區的是不同的,所以呈現出來的結果也大異其趣!
