After struggling through a norovirus outbreak that sickened 67 people last month, Denmark’s Noma got some more bad news, relinguishing the title of world’s best restaurant to Spain’s El Celler de Can Roca
The World’s 50 Best Restaurants list compiled for a 12th year by more than 900 international experts for Britain’s Restaurant magazine.
In previous statements, inspectors from the Danish food ministry criticized the restaurant for not alerting authorities quickly enough and for failing to take adequate action after a kitchen worker fell sick, meaning that the illness spread to customers,while Noma blamed internal communication problems for failing to disinfect the kitchen quickly enough.
