  1. Rank 1. Kinkally

    Georgian Eastern European

    The name comes from khinkali, the Georgian dumplings with a pinched handle on top that you're supposed to eat without a fork, and they're the anchor of this lively Charlotte Street restaurant. The menu fans out from there into Georgian small and large plates, while downstairs a basement bar called Kinky keeps things going with creative cocktails and a techno soundtrack, which is one way to run a Tuesday.

  2. Rank 1. Sino

    Ukrainian Eastern European

    Rye and sourdough arrive in a basket before anything else, which tells you something about the priorities here. This cosy Notting Hill restaurant channels Ukraine through its menu, from black pudding croquettes to beef dumplings bobbing in spicy broth. The chef's story is extraordinary, but the food doesn't lean on it, it just quietly makes the case. Warm, personal, and a little unexpected for All Saints Road.

  3. Rank 1. Tatar Bunar

    Ukrainian Eastern European

    The room looks like a gallery dedicated to Ukrainian ceramics, which is either a bold move or the most accurate possible preview of the food to come. This Shoreditch restaurant serves generous, share-friendly plates rooted in Ukrainian cooking, with a long open kitchen and a covered terrace out back. The pickled cherry tomatoes with lemon yoghurt have become the dish regulars argue over last rights to. A welcome addition to Curtain Road.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
