Chinatown kid RAK:

New York Times lists 10 best restaurants of the world and 2 Chinese
restaurants (one in Shanghai, one in Sydney) are on the list but no
Japanese restaurants on the list. RAK, where's Japanese
restaurants???

An Epicurean Pilgrimage: Meals Worth the Price of a Plane Ticket

AFTER half a century of assiduous eating in restaurants around the
world, first avocationally and more recently professionally, I have
become accustomed to certain questions: "What's your favorite
restaurant?" "What will you order for your last meal on earth?" "Which
is best - French cuisine? Italian? Chinese?" All unanswerable, of
course. Now comes a more modest proposition: Name 10 restaurants
abroad that would be worth boarding a plane to visit, even in these
fraught days.

you are one dumb chink ! RAK and his goons spend all their waking
hours searching the internet for something to insult and taunt the
chinese people with. do you think they would post this link, seeing
that there is no jappy restaurant mentioned but two chink restaurants
mentioned?

Are you dumb or something? This is just one guy's opinion. You can say
that he's one knowledgeable guy but in fact he already acknowledged it
in the end: "I have shortchanged Turkey, Thailand and Japan. I know,

knowledge."

Meaning: who knows, Chinese food is there only because
of.....affirmative action!!?? Hmmmmm.

It's suggestive. Afterall he wrote: "Among Sydney chefs, Tetsuya
Wakuda [hint hint, Japanese chef, even if it's not necessarily
Japanese cuisine], with his confit of Tasmanian ocean trout, and Neil
Perry of Rockpool, with his mud crabs, get most of the international
ink, and rightly so; they are as gifted as any of their counterparts
in Europe or America. But I would head from my Qantas jet for Billy
Kwong, my favorite neighborhood restaurant (whose neighborhood,
unfortunately, is exactly 9,758 miles from mine." Translation: "but
I would go against...." Going against others!! i.e. it's like car
mags, the primary verdict always includes a lone secondary opinion to
balance things out to make everyone happy.
