Enjoy unique gastronomy at Tapas Molecular Bar at Manadarin Oriental<\/p><\/div>\n

2. The Tapas Molecular Bar<\/h2>\n

Mandarin Oriental, Tokyo, Japan<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve never heard of molecular cuisine, then it\u2019s time to head to the Manadarin Oriental\u2019s<\/a> Tapas Molecular Bar<\/a> in Tokyo<\/a> for a (mind-blowing) taste. High above the glittering city lights, Chef Kento Ushikubo experiments with new approaches to familiar dishes, de-constructing this, re-assembling that and generally having a whole lot of fun \u2013 which is exactly what molecular cuisine is all about. The menu is designed to stimulate all five senses and with only eight seats around the sushi-style bar, you\u2019ll get to watch his every move using tools and techniques that wouldn\u2019t be out of place in a science lab. The lobster and turnip cake is always a favourite.<\/p>\n

Savour the Chilean delicacies at The Singular Restaurant, Singular Santiago<\/p><\/div>\n

3. The Singular Restaurant<\/h2>\n

Singular Santiago, Chile<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you know anything about the Singular hotels, it will be that their designs are worthy of the front cover of Architectural Digest. And now, we can shout about the restaurants too. Chef Hern\u00e1n Basso\u2019s first endeavour was the outpost in Patagonia<\/a> and now, he\u2019s worked his magic at the Singular Santiago<\/a>. The idea<\/a> is wholesome, Chilean delights with a touch of French flair and technique: oysters from Chilo\u00e9 Island, Patagonian guanaco, and seared octopus with lemon foam all make an appearance. Produce comes from all over the country and even the cocktail menu celebrates Chilean heritage. Oh, and of course the interiors are top-notch, from the chic, leather-clad chairs to the checkered floor.<\/p>\n

5. Indian Accent<\/h2>\n

The Lodhi, Delhi, India<\/strong><\/p>\n

It wouldn\u2019t be a foodie article without a mention of India<\/a>, and the Indian Accent<\/a> in Delhi<\/a> is the country\u2019s one restaurant that frequently makes the Top 50 Restaurants in the World lists \u2013 and it’s conveniently located in The Lodhi hotel<\/a>. Famous for its inventive, global take on classic Indian cooking (think pumpkin bitterballen with coconut and mustard, and mud crab and kulfi sorbet), it\u2019s all about the tasting menu here and dishes are served in bite-size, colourful portions. At the helm is Chef Manish Mehrotra who opened the restaurant in 2009 and can still be found in the kitchen today. When he\u2019s not in Delhi, seek him out at one of the other branches in Mumbai<\/a>, New York or London.<\/p>\n

6. The Grotto<\/h2>\n

Rayavadee, Krabi, Thailand<\/strong><\/p>\n

Straight off the set of a James Bond movie, Thailand\u2019s<\/a> Krabi<\/a> coastline is a mix of bath-tub warm waters, white sands, jungles, and the iconic limestone, green-capped cliffs that rise into the sky like sentinels of the ocean. It\u2019s in one of these very cliffs that the clever hoteliers of Rayavadee<\/a>, a boutique resort on the gorgeous Phranang Peninsula, chose to build their aptly-named Grotto Restaurant<\/a>. Peering out over Andaman Sea, tables are laid in the million-year-old, stalactite-studded cave, flickering candles providing the only light and the sandy beach as your floor. Book a table in the evening and enjoy a \u2018Twilight Dinner\u2019 of yuzu-drizzled Andaman lobster, lemongrass red snapper and tropical desserts as the sun dips into the ocean and paints the sky red and gold.<\/p>\n

Enjoy a burst of flavours at Entre Cielos Wine & Wellness Hotel, Mendoza<\/p><\/div>\n

7. Entre Cielos Wine & Wellness Hotel, Mendoza<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s fair to say that Entre Cielos<\/a> takes pride in its vast vineyards and wine. Malbec tastings are frequent and far from shy, all rooms are named after wine-making techniques, and you can even bathe in a tub of red in the grape-themed spa. And what do you need after all those libations? A great restaurant, of course \u2013 and pretty Katharina\u2019s delivers on every level. Interiors are muted and minimalist, partly to defer to the ravishing views through the floor-to-ceiling windows, but also to let the food do the talking. It\u2019s all about refined regional tastes from fall-apart Mendocinean lamb to goat ravioli. There\u2019s also an asado (barbeque) evening a couple of times a week, showcasing the country\u2019s world-class meats \u2013 and of course, the wine list is lengthy and fabulous.<\/p>\n

The Maldives\u2019<\/a> first \u201cmodern Maldivian\u201d restaurant, Ba\u2019theli<\/a> at Milaidhoo<\/a> is an explosion of flavours. The ingredients of a true Maldivian recipe are based on the islands\u2019 location on an ancient trading route, and cumin, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and coriander feature heavily. At Ba\u2019theli, you\u2019ll be treated to all five (sometimes at once) in dishes reinvented for the 21st century. The chef\u2019s tasting menu is a must and highlights include havaadhuli mas, Maldivian tuna spiced with local island mustard leaves and copra essence, and moodhumas kiru garudhiya, fresh coconut milk poached fish flavoured with curry leaf ocean foam. Even the setting is authentic and you\u2019ll dine on the deck of an old ba\u2019theli sailing boat, the turquoise waves gently lapping at the stern.<\/p>\n

It was the first \u2013 and is still the only \u2013 restaurant in Vietnam to lay claim to a three-star Michelin chef (Pierre Gagnaire) and everything about the dining experience is exquisite: the food, the perfectly-curated, 450 strong wine list and the elegant mansion with its whimsical Bill Bensley-designed interiors. On offer is a 3-, 5- or 7-course menu of French cuisine infused with unmistakable Vietnamese flair, skill and passion. A mouth-watering journey that is hard to beat\u2026<\/p>\n

10. Giraffe Manor<\/h2>\n

Nairobi, Kenya<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sometimes it\u2019s not about the food you eat, but the company you are enjoying that makes a truly memorable meal. At Nairobi\u2019s<\/a> Giraffe Manor<\/a>, your dining companions are rather unusual; four-legged, long-necked type of unusual! The beautiful grounds of the 1930s manor house are home to half a dozen endangered Rothschild giraffes, who poke their heads through the windows for breakfast and join guests on the terrace for afternoon tea. Revel in getting up close and personal to the fascinating creatures \u2013 a treat or two helps \u2013 and watch them stroll around their leafy sanctuary over evening cocktails. If you\u2019re really lucky, you might get a head butt or a \u2018Giraffe Kiss\u2019 whilst enjoying your tea and scones\u2026<\/p>\n
