The international food magazine is known for cooking tips, recipes, cooking advice, and original reports on food trends around the world. So really, it's an honour to see our city's name on its site.

The number one spot was taken by Cape Town, followed by Budapest, Chicago, and Melbourne.

Mexico city ranked #5, which was followed by San Sebastian, Bergen, and Hong Kong.

Tenth on the list, the only below our beloved city of Montreal, was Napoli, Italy.
