Although the abundance of information is of great use to gourmets, it can also be a source of confusion or even manipulation if clear criteria are not established. The goal of LA LISTE, whose first ranking was unveiled in PARIS on December 17, 2015, is to provide these criteria by summarising all available information on the world's 1,000 top restaurants.
LA LISTE is designed to be an aggregator, its aim is not to rank gastronomies, cultures or pass judgment on the quality of restaurants, but to compile reviews from all exiting guidebooks and online comments in order to provide a list of 1,000 restaurants around the world.
Thes results were achieved using a 'fair and independent' methodology :
- Were listed, harmonized and compiled the scores awarded to several thousand restaurants by almost 200 guidebooks and online review sites.
- Scores relating to the wine list, service and decor were also included.

- After were asked a panel of around 150,000 restaurant owners to rate the reliability of the different guidebooks.
- The result of that survey, carried out under professionial supervision, determined the relative weighting of each guidebook in each restaurant's overall score.
- Finally, actual comments frominteractive websites were included, which accounted for 25% of the overall score.

- The ranking not only shows that Haute Cuisine exist everywhere, but also that it is recognized by guidebooks in countries often neglected by Western European gourmets, such as Estonia, Poland and Slovenia.
- There are few Russia, restaurants on the list, perhaps due to the embargo which prevents chefs from importing some products from Europe.
- Online reveiw sites are confirming their growing influence : today, even the leading gourmet restaurants can receive hundreds or thousand votes.
- When giving scores, the Japanese, Chinese and Americans seem to be harsher than Europeans.
