La Liste
La Liste is a list of the 1,000 best restaurants in the world. It is sanctioned by France’s Foreign Ministry and tourism board and was launched in Paris in December 2015.[1][2] La Liste is cited as the French Foreign Ministry's response to the British published gastronomic guide The World's 50 Best Restaurants.[3]
Founder of La Liste, Ambassador Philippe Faure, was previously CEO of Gault & Millau, Head of the French Tourist Board,[4] and served as Ambassador of France to Japan from 2007 to 2011. Corporate sponsors of La Liste include Moët Hennessy, Nestle and Accor Hotels.[5]
Methodology
La Liste is compiled using a data processing algorithm dubbed Ciacco, named after a fictional glutton from Dante’s Divine Comedy. The list factors in 200 international dining guides, crowd-sourced sites (such as Yelp and TripAdvisor), New York Times and Washington Post reviews. It also takes into consideration Zagat, Michelin, the James Beard Award, Gault & Millau, OpenTable. The algorithm was invented by a French-American computer systems architect Antoine Ribaut, son of former Le Monde food critic Jean-Claude.[1][2]
List
Japan tops the list with 127[6] restaurants followed by France with 118 and the United States with 101.[1][2][7]
