TOP25-Restaurants-Awards-Phuket-2023In a dazzling combination of technology and taste, the digital culinary arbiter, TOP25Restaurants.com, has once again shone a spotlight on Phuket’s gastronomic gems. The grand reveal of Phuket’s finest 25 restaurants of 2023 took centre stage, making headlines in the global culinary community.

Standing tall, ‘hom’ has clinched the zenith of culinary achievements. Under the masterful hands of chef Ricardo Nunes, ‘hom’ offers diners a divine journey into fermentation-inspired dishes, sourcing its magic directly from Phuket’s verdant treasures. Yet, the fight for supremacy was fierce. L’Arôme by the Sea, a bastion of French culinary arts under chef Yannick Hollenstein, and Jampa’s sustainable daily-evolving menu rounded out the top three.

While established names maintained their stately presence, nine new entrants stormed onto the list, marking their territory in Phuket’s illustrious dining scene. Among these debutants was HEH, introducing Phuket to the nuances of Australian fine dining, and Semi di Tsubu, a captivating blend of Japanese and Italian culinary artistry.

The brainchild of visionary Bernard Metzger, TOP25Restaurants.com, since its inception in 2018, has served as the gastronomic North Star. Fueled by Travelindex’s patented Restaurant Rating Index, this sophisticated evaluation mechanism dives deep into the very soul of a restaurant, factoring in ambience, value, digital footprints, and an array of social indicators.

September 11, 2023, became a historic date in Phuket’s culinary diary. The InterContinental Resort & Spa Phuket hosted the first-ever physical ceremony of the TOP25 Restaurants Phuket Awards since the ranking’s inception. This monumental gathering celebrated the crème de la crème of Phuket’s culinary realm and symbolized the resilience and vibrancy of the island’s gastronomic world post-pandemic.
