Unquestionably the buzziest opening in recent memory. “Hipsters and oldsters alike” flock to Bao Bei (Gold) for pillowy dumplings, Asian-style beef tartar, and other inventive plates like shao bing—crunchy sesame flatbread stuffed with braised pork and crisp Asian pear.

Michael Mameli and Julio Gonzalez-Perini rebooted Lupo (Bronze) to luminous effect. Judges loved the raviolo filled with spinach, ricotta and a free-run egg—“the yolk mingles seductively with a scattering of toasted hazelnuts. What a deliciously sexy dish!” Honourable Mentions to Andrey Durbach’s latest neighbourhood room (Cafeteria) and the gorgeous Oru at the Fairmont Pacific Rim.
