  1. Lasai

    Modern Cuisine, Innovative

    Eat 96

    Ten seats arranged in an L-shaped counter, all of them facing the kitchen, is the whole room at this two-Michelin-star tasting menu restaurant in Humaitá. Chef Rafael Costa e Silva runs the counter himself, working through a 15-course menu built around produce from his own gardens, most of it vegetable-forward in a way that never feels like a compromise. It holds a spot on the World's 50 Best Restaurants list, and booking ahead is non-negotiable.

    Three honors, in evidence:

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. Most of it is the record: the scored places within reach, weighed by distance, so more good stuff nearby means a higher score. The rest is how life is in that country and what it's like right there: how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are, the air, and the weather. If it looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
