Chef Peter Zambri is a living legend on the island, a chef’s chef with a dedicated following. This year saw him finally leaving his small location and moving a few blocks into bigger digs with a new expanded kitchen (and a spiffy wood-fired oven); Zambri’s (Gold) takes top spot again. “Sophisticated cucina rustico cooked with plenty of passion” was a typical comment, and though a few judges noted a bit of Gordon Ramsay-like attitude, no one quibbled with the quality of the food.
