Ian,

I haven't eaten in London, so can't comment on restaurants. Certainly
London has gained a rep as a hot spot for chefs since mid-90s.
But......this list is ludicrous.So there are 14 UK restaurants better
than anything in Tokyo?
Beyond obvious UK bias, let's look at NYC. WD-50 but no Le Bernadin?
You have got to be #$%@ing kidding. Gramercy Tavern is the most
dependable dining experience in NYC, but 15th best in the world? Masa
has no track record- what % of voters do you think have actually eaten
there?
This list reads like a list of most press citations, not best
restaurants.

This doesn't detract from British dining- from what I've read, Fat Duck
is extraordinary. But this list really proves nothing.
