    World's 50 Best Restaurants 2013

    An insightful preview of the 11th annual World's 50 Best Restaurants awards, being held in London on Monday 29th of April.

    The 11th Annual World's 50 Best Restaurants awards have been announced, and will be held on Monday the 29th of April, at the prestigious Guildhall in London.

    The award ceremony, which is dedicated to the world's finest chefs, restaurateurs and culinary experts is organised by Restaurant magazine and is sponsored by San Pellegrino and Acqua Panna.

    The awards are known for generating a significant amount of interest within the food industry each year, with recognition all across the globe. The official website behind the event was visited by over two million people last year alone.

    Some of the award categories include the Silestone Chef's Choice Award, as well as the coveted prize on offer, San Pellegrino's World's Best Restaurant.

    Among those which have been announced prior to the ceremony are the sensational Nadia Santini, winner of the 2013 Veuve Clicquot World's Best Female Chef, and Alain Ducasse, winner of the Diners Club International Lifetime Achievement Award.

    There is also a new category being introduced this time around in the form of the Sustainable Restaurant Award, sponsored by Zacapa. The winner will be the restaurant which has demonstrated the highest levels of environmental and social responsibility throughout the year.

    The voting panel is comprised of 26 separate regions from around the world, with each region's members including respected food critics, chefs and restaurateurs. Although there are no pre-determined criteria to dictate selection, each region must ensure that at least three of their seven allocated votes are dedicated to restaurants outside of their own region.

    The all-important results will be published on Ultra Vie's blog promptly after they have been announced and will also feature in May's edition of Restaurant Magazine.
