According to at least two of the most recognized food lists, the two Michelin star, Noma is the world’s best restaurant, and has been for at least the last two years.
At a price of around $250 per person, it is also not a cheap dining experience.
It is currently in a large amount of trouble due to poor communication and methods allowing staff to work whilst ill. As a result, according to a recent article in Hospitality Magazine, 63 people have ended up with Norovirus.
Itt will indeed be interesting to see if this will have an impact on the restaurant’s rating in next year’s best restaurant lists.
Norovirus is typically associated staff or visitors being ill and not washing hands properly. It is not usually linked to food but is related to poor hygiene. It is one of the most common causes of food poisoning in the USA and is often linked to aged care homes.
For more information about Norovirus, there is a great page set up by Bill Marler, who is a food poisoning related lawyer in the USA.
