  1. The sushi rice here has its own reputation, which tells you something about the seriousness of this Edomae omakase counter inside Raffles Cotai. It's the first outpost outside Japan from the team behind a three-Michelin-starred room in Sapporo, and the Macau iteration holds a Michelin star and a Forbes Five Star of its own. The room is calm and spare, the pacing unhurried, and the fish arrives at the kind of temperature that suggests someone cares deeply about that sort of thing.

    Koi carp swim through the decor in elaborate nishikigoi motifs, and the kitchen takes the same care with the food. This is a full-scale Japanese fine dining room inside Wynn Palace, with sushi, tempura, and teppanyaki counters all running at once. The chef trained under the kaiseki masters at Kitcho Arashiyama, and the binchotan-grilled courses carry that weight quietly. It holds a Michelin star.

  6. An omakase teppanyaki counter inside Raffles at Galaxy Macau, where the team behind the hot plate trained for decades in Japan and treats the grill as a stage rather than a shortcut. Seasonal ingredients fly in daily from Japanese producers, and the menu shifts with what's worth eating that month. The Forbes Four Star follows logically. Cotai has no shortage of imported Japanese concepts; this one was built here from scratch.

      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.
