(CNN) — Tuesday night, Den in Tokyo was given top honors by the World's 50 Best group, recognizing it as the best restaurant in Asia.
Den is no stranger to accolades. It has two Michelin stars and has been in the top 10 on the World's Best list in years past. But it also just happens to be where I ate one of the best meals of my life.
