Three U.S. restaurants just made this year's World's 100 Best Restaurants list
This year's selection spans six continents and 25 countries and, as always, is a showcase of global culinary excellence. From São Paulo to San Francisco, Atxondo to Queenstown, restaurants across 37 cities made the cut. And while these dining destinations didn't manage to crack that coveted top 50 list, they're anything but second tier.
In the United States, one newcomer and two previous list-makers have been recognized. César in New York makes its debut at number 98. Helmed by César Ramirez—whose résumé includes such acclaimed kitchens as The French Laundry, Le Bernardin and Brooklyn Fare—it's a sleek, seafood-centered temple of precision and power, with dishes like his now-iconic uni toast.
Atelier Crenn in San Francisco returns to the list at number 96. Chef Dominique Crenn's tasting menu remains one of the most emotionally resonant experiences in the game, with her team (including dessert wizard Juan Contreras) delivering magic plate after plate.
And a second NYC restaurant, the legendary Le Bernardin, comes in at number 90. Here, chef Eric Ripert continues to elevate globally influenced French cuisine across multiple tasting menus in an effortlessly elegant setting.
You can check out which other exceptional eateries made it to the World's 50 Best extended list here. As for that other half of the prestigious rankings, the top 50 best restaurants will be announced on June 19 at a lavish Italian ceremony. Last year, two U.S. restaurants made the list—Atomix in New York, NY and Single Thread in Healdsburg, CA. If you want to catch the action, the ceremony will be livestreamed from Turin at 8pm (local time) on the World's 50 Best YouTube channel.

Oasis issued stark Trump warning as US tour looms
The warning comes as the brothers set to embark on their leg of the tour over the pond. Oasis were issued a stern warning to keep their opinions on Donald Trump to a minimum during the US leg of their tour. A top entertainment manager gave his advice to the Gallagher brothers in order to prevent any political drama whilst the pair are in America. It comes after Liam previously branded the notoriously sensitive US President a "d***", while Noel has described his environmental policies as "pretty f***ing scary". Now, they're being advised to hold their tongues or face potential disruptions to their concerts. Top showbiz exec Jonathan Shalit remarked: "My advice to Oasis is simple: stay out of American politics. If they want their US tour to go ahead without disruption, it would be wise to keep quiet on all things Trump." This guidance follows an incident where a French scientist was barred from entering the US due to anti-Trump comments found on his phone. Immigration officials at an airport reportedly uncovered texts in where he had expressed criticism of Trump's administration back in March. Back in 2018, amidst the ongoing feud between the Oasis siblings, Liam even alleged that Noel was "worse than Donald Trump". Answering a query about who he considered the world's biggest villain, the Wonderwall star remarked: "Gotta be Noel. And he's worse than Donald Trump. He's the biggest liar and biggest faker in the business, so yeah, him." The band, fresh from their performance in Edinburgh, Scotland, over the weekend, will kick off their first US gig in Chicago on August 28, followed by shows in New Jersey and California. Meanwhile, a top tribute artist has claimed that the Gallaghers' cherished mother Peggy will "definitely" be in attendance at the Oasis gigs in Dublin, adding an extra layer of sentiment to the occasion. Gavin Fleming, who impersonates Liam in the Dublin-based tribute band Live Forever, mentioned she'll be present "looking out and seeing her two sons back talking together". He revealed: "I can confirm she's going to be at both [shows]. We have a little source there. She's going to be at the Dublin shows, looking out and seeing her two sons back talking together. It was a real family feud, so it's great to see. They're brothers again, most importantly." The iconic siblings, whose lineage traces back to Ireland, are set to perform at Dublin's Croke Park next weekend. Peggy had previously expressed her desire to attend but was recuperating from hip surgery. She also disclosed that she played a pivotal role as the "instigator" in mending their notorious discord and triggering the reunion.

Suranne Jones watched Starmer and Sunak ‘battle' in preparation for new role
In an interview with Radio Times, Jones discussed her upcoming Netflix drama Hostage in which she plays a fictional British prime minister whose husband is kidnapped. The series, which will be released on the streaming platform on August 21, sees Julie Delpy play a fictional visiting French president who is blackmailed, leaving the two leaders to face unimaginable choices. On her preparation for the role, Jones said: 'We spoke to people in positions of power. 'We went to the House of Commons, and we watched Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer battle against each other. 'We met with the Speaker, Lindsay Hoyle. We looked at Nicola Sturgeon. And Jacinda Ardern (the former prime minister of New Zealand). 'We looked at Theresa May. And Lucy Powell (MP for Manchester Central). 'We had fun developing it. It made me think about what being a woman of power means, and what it costs.' She added: 'The whole thing is about you, your family unit, how women split themselves between work and home, what the cost is, how you want to be portrayed, how the world perceives you as a woman, and what you have to battle with, before you start your day. 'All of that is going on before you put your heels on. 'And you might not want to put your heels on. And your power suit. But actually, you have to in order to make a mark in the room.' Jones rose to fame playing Karen McDonald on ITV soap Coronation Street, and the actress is due to star in the third series of BBC police drama Vigil, which is being filmed this year with a release date yet to be announced. The full interview can be read in the latest edition of Radio Times magazine.
