Amber, Ultraviolet rank among world's 50 best restaurants
It slipped a little, from No 20 to No 24, but Hong Kong's Amber restaurant remains firmly ensconced on the World's 50 Best Restaurants last week. It is the only Hong Kong restaurant on the 2017 list and, like last year, joins Shanghai's Ultraviolet by Paul Pariet (No 41) as the only two restaurants in China to be so lauded.
The annual San Pellegrino-sponsored ranking was announced on April 5 at an awards ceremony in Melbourne, Australia.
"It shows that Amber continues to be recognized as one of the relevant restaurants in a highly competitive world," says Amber's chef Richard Ekkebus. "I would like to thank my team for working with me daily, ensuring our guests a consistency in service and dining experience, and keeping us on the list for seven consecutive years is a truly remarkable achievement."
