(CNN) — For the first time in five years, there's a new "best restaurant" in Asia.
The "Asia's 50 Best Restaurants" awards were handed out at Macau's Wynn Palace Tuesday night.
The glitzy ceremony, sponsored by S.Pellegrino & Acqua Panna, is considered by many to be the Oscars of fine dining in Asia, bringing together top chefs from around the largest continent to celebrate food and drink.
The list, now in its seventh year, is compiled based on votes from 300 industry insiders, including food writers, critics, chefs and restaurateurs.

Japan leads the night

But it was Japan that had the most venues in the top 50 this year -- 12 to be exact.
Tokyo's Den took the No. 3 spot, making it Japan's best restaurant for a second consecutive year. Three other restaurants in Japan also cracked the top 10: Florilège (No. 5), Narisawa (No. 8) and Nihonryori RyuGin (No. 9).

Asia's top 5 best restaurants in 2019:

1. Odette, Singapore

2. Gaggan, Bangkok

3. Den, Tokyo (Japan's best restaurant)
