Osteria Francescana, Massimo Bottura’s three-Michelin-starred tasting menu venue in Italy’s Emilia-Romagna region, has returned to the top spot on the World’s 50 Best Restaurants list. The restaurant unseated 2017 champion Eleven Madison Park.

在意大利的艾米莉亚-罗马尼亚大区，有一家由大厨Massimo Bottura掌勺的米其林三星餐厅，名叫Osteria Francescana。该餐厅在今年的“世界50佳餐厅”榜单中，成功击败了“麦迪逊公园大道11号”，再次荣膺榜首，成为了“世界最佳餐厅”。

The top restaurants list’s organizers praised "Bottura’s contemporary cuisine, which challenges and reinvents Italian culinary tradition while make use of the finest produce from the Emilia-Romagna region".

评委会对此的评价是，“Bottura大厨的当代烹饪艺术挑战并且再造了意大利的烹饪传统，利用艾米莉亚-罗马尼亚大区最佳的食材创造出了令人惊艳的美食。”

His father wanted him to become a lawyer but when he was 23 years old, Bottura, who was famous for rustling up culinary delights for his friends, dropped his law studies to open a restaurant in the countryside around Modena.

Bottura从小就被父亲期待成为一名律师，但是23岁之时，烹饪技艺初露锋芒的他放弃了法律的学习，来到摩德纳的郊外，开设了一家餐厅。

Years later, after spending time in some top restaurants in New York and Monaco, Bottura opened Osteria Francescana in 1995. The most famous eel dish really has something to show off, as New Yorker reported, “His eel — cooked sous-vide, lacquered with a saba sauce, and served with creamy polenta and a raw wild-apple jelly — refers to the fight of the Estense dukes to Modena in 1598, after Clement VIII seized their capital at Ferrara and claimed its eel marshes and fisheries for the Church.”

多年后，经历了在纽约和摩纳哥顶级餐厅的锻炼和洗礼，Bottura于1995年开办了Osteria Francescana餐厅。招牌菜鳗鱼来头可不小，《纽约客》杂志曾经这样写道，“他的鳗鱼，经过低温慢煮，涂上一层绵密的萨巴酱，配以意式波伦塔和野生苹果酱——象征着1598年摩德纳艾斯腾斯公爵之战，这场战役因克莱门八世夺取费拉拉城，抢占鳗鱼渔场而引发。”

在这样一家顶级餐厅用餐，自然价格不菲。午市和晚市的菜单价格在250至270欧元之间，另可选择配酒，费用需额外增加140到180欧元不等。也就是说，一顿丰盛的双人晚餐，价格轻轻松松就会攀上6千人民币。
