Best Meal of 2009
by Ebony Montenegro

With all the variety out there it is difficult to say exactly which meal was the best in 2009. Eater left it to the experts to spill on their favorites. Among the most popular were several dishes at Marea. Kate Krader of Food & Wine raved over burrata antipasti, ferrantini pasta with clams and squid and chiles. Then Jeff Zalaznick of Always Hungry loved the octopus & bone marrow fusilli, also stating “even the steak at Marea is mind blowing.”

Here the others that made the list in no particular order:

Blue Hill at Stone Barns

Per Se

Recipe

Locanda

Le Bernardin

El Bulli

Prime Meats

David Burke Townhouse

Le Bernardin

Convivio

Vinegar Hill

Bill’s

Boqueria

Locanda Verde

The Vanderbilt

The Redhead

Momofuku Noodle Bar

Roberta’s

The dishes range from friend chicken to offal, think lamb flavor panna cotta, seafood, to foi gras terrine. Hungry yet? No doubt 2009 was a good year for food. Let’s see who makes it on the list in 2010. In the meantime, what was your favorite dish of 2009?
