The Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants List is out and it features three restaurants from India. Mumbai’s fine dining restaurant Masque, New Delhi’s Indian Accent, and Avartana at ITC Grand Chola in Chennai.

The first two restaurants had earlier featured in the list but while Masque rose from number 21 to 16 last year to become the Best Restaurant in India this year, Accent also rose through the ranks. It was at number 22 last year and is at number 19 now.

Responding to the announcement, founder of Masque Aditi Dugar tweeted, "Moments like these make every sleepless night worth it. Flights taken at odd hours. Days full of meetings. Long services. Difficult conversations. Admin frustrations. Everything seems worth it."
