Inspired by
blogging royalty, Queen Elizabeth On
Food (here), I thought I’d do a rundown of the best
things I ate in 2017. Whilst I haven’t visited even half as many Michelin Starred
and World’s 50 Best Restaurants as Her Highness has (few do), I have eaten lots
of wonderful things, in lots of wonderful places. This post will come in two
parts – the International Edition (here)
and the UK Edition (here).
What strikes
me most looking back over this list is, A) I didn’t realise I liked scallops as
much as I do. B) It's obvious that not every Michelin starred restaurant I've eaten at this year has made the list, but you don't need Michelin star's to produce damn tasty food!
