More than 20 judges selected the winners of the prestigious awards that were announced at the Science Museum in London this week.

Paris’s Pierre Gagnaire restaurant was named the best in France, while the romantic city also seemed to be the best place for foodies, with nine restaurants in the top 50.

Joe Warwick, editor of Restaurant Magazine which organizes the awards, said: “There is a consensus among people who know restaurants that France is definitely the strongest country and probably deserves to be at the top of the list.”

Eating in or out of France

Whether you’ve decided to head to an expensive restaurant or choose to eat in the comfort of your own home, when it comes to dining, there are certain differences between the French and the British.

The French tend to have a smaller breakfast than their English counterparts and tend to eat dinner a little later.

They are also big fans of bottled water even though tap water is usually fine to drink and even though France is a wine country the locals rarely drink it all the time.

Every region of France has a version of its own special dish, cheese, and wine, making each place you visit that little bit more exciting.
