TripAdvisor unveils 2022 Best of the Best Restaurants

TripAdvisor has unveiled its community-powered Travellers’ Choice Awards series for the 2022 Best of the Best Restaurants to help people discover all the must-visit restaurants when travelling. There are six different subcategories of restaurant types.
