GQ’s annual list of the 25 Most Outstanding Restaurants of 2015 is officially out for digital subscribers. At the top of food critic Alan Richman’s list: Langbaan in the number 2 slot, right behind Rose’s Luxury in Washington D.C. Further down the list, Richman names Ataula #13 with Kachka taking up the rear at #19.

“I’ve rarely felt so at home on a visit to a restaurant where I sat at a counter in front of two chefs I could barely understand,” writes Richman. “This was the first Thai food I’ve ever eaten that made me wish I lived over there.”

This is high praise for Langbaan, Portland Monthly’s restaurant of the year 2014. Langbaan’s Earl Ninsom tells Eat Beat: “I heard this morning…I thought it was a dream. It’s so crazy…I never expected it.”
