Our 30th Annual Restaurant Awards feature is a result of a lot of eating by a lot of judges. The process starts as soon as last year’s awards are done and doesn’t stop until this issue goes to press. In the interim there are hundreds of meals, a few glasses of wine and plenty of heated debates. These are the results—dig in.
Our food editor, Neal McLennan, has never been one to shy away from sharing his opinion, and with his scathing review of the much-hyped Hydra, his disappointment was loud and clear (and seriously controversial).
The 2019 Power 50 list looks at the people in our community who are at the forefront of these issues—the changemakers, the business leaders, the activists and the politicians who moved the dial in this city in 2019 and, no doubt, in the year to come.
