DUA bulan lalu Juli 2011, rendang masuk urutan ke-11 makanan terbaik di dunia versi situs CNNGo. Kini, rendang menempati posis 1 daftar 50 makanan terbaik di dunia. Rendang dengan cepat melesat naik ke posisi pertama mengalahkan makanan dari Thailand, massaman curry, yang sebelumnya menempati urutan pertama. Kini, kuliner khas Negeri Gajah tersebut terlempar ke posisi 10. Tidak hanya itu, rendang ternyata juga mengalahkan makanan terfavorit Jepang, yaitu sushi yang hanya menempati posisi 3. Makanan terbaik Asia yang digeser rendang, di antaranya dim sum (Hongkong), ramen (Jepang), peking duck (China), pad thai, tom yam goong, dan som tam (Thailand). Demikian seperti dilansir CNNGo, (8/9/2011). Rendang mengalahkan pula makanan khas Indonesia lainnya, yaitu nasi goreng yang berada di urutan kedua.

By Tim Cheung 7 September, 2011 What are the world's most delicious foods? We thought we knew. Apparently we don't. Our list of the World's 50 most delicious foods stimulated some impassioned debate about the conspicuous lack of French dishes and the merits of ketchup over mayonnaise. Ketchup? Pop Corn? Chips? Plenty of Thai but few Malay food? What about Chinese (Sichuan, Cantonese, etc)? No Brazilian or Argentinean? queried commenter Max. Reader LoveFoods wrote, "OMG why are people hating? If you don't like the list, make your own! I love Thai and Japanese foods." LoveFoods was right. So we threw it open to a vote on a Facebook poll. And now, after more than 35,000 votes, it appears we got it all wrong. The worlds most delicious food is not Massaman curry, as we suggested, but a meaty, spicy, gingery dish from west Sumatra.- Rendang Couscous and lemon curd cake both took scores of votes, but didn't make the list. Some 439 people thought gelato deserved a place in online history. The top 50 foods according to CNNGo readers are below. Bon appetit.
38. Brownie & ice cream -The dessert you can use to compare all the world's restaurants.
32. Lobster - If you were on a million menus you'd have big claws too.
14. Satay / Sate - Stick it, soak it, eat it, lick it.
12. Kimchi - How much money have Korean restaurants lost out on by giving this away for free?
8. World's loudest food? The Land of Smiles isnt just a marketing tag-line. Its a result of being born in a land where the best curry is sold on nearly every street corner.
8. Ramen, Japan
Japanese protocol says the tastier your ramen is, the louder you should slurp it up to show respect to your chef. Not that they need more respect. One mouthful of this most Japanese of noodle broths will quickly tell you that either you have a ramen trigger in your brain, or Japanese chefs are geniuses.

4. Tom yam goong,Do you eat or drink soup? Either way just get it inside you.
3. Sushi, Japan
When Japan wants to build something right, it builds it really right. Brand giants such as Toyota, Nintendo, Sony, Nikon and Yamaha may have been created by people fueled by nothing more complicated than raw fish and rice, but its how the fish and rice is put together that makes this a global first-date favorite. This perfect marriage between raw fish and rice has easily kept sushi in the top five. And like one reader, Nymayor, wrote, "Now to be fair, DELICIOUS can be simple." The Japanese dont live practically forever for no reason -- they want to keep eating this stuff. Also: How to eat sushi properly

1. Rendang, Indonesia
Reader Kamal F Chaniago showed great foresight when he wrote, "Rendang is the best." A clear winner with a loyal following, this beefy dish can now rightfully claim the title of "World's Most Delicious Food." Beef is slowly simmered with coconut milk and a mixture of lemongrass, galangal, garlic, turmeric, ginger and chilies, then left to stew for a few hours to create this dish of tender, flavorful bovine goodness. The Indonesian dish is often served at ceremonial occasions and to honored guests. It's not only delicious but also comes with a simple recipe. If you haven't already, go ahead and take reader Isabela Desita's advice: "Rendang should be the first! It's really nice, you should try!" Also on CNNGo: 40 of Indonesia's best foods
Rendang Peringkat 11 Rendang Di Peringkat 11. Siapa tak kenal rendang? Meski dikenal sebagai masakan asli masyarakat Padang, Sumatera Barat, rendang populer di hampir seluruh pelosok tanah air. Santapan berupa daging sapi yang diolah dengan santan hingga kering itu pun tak kalah populer di Malaysia. Popularitas yang tercipta jelas tak lepas dari cita rasa rendang itu sendiri. Baru-baru ini, rendang bahkan masuk di urutan ke-11 dari 50 daftar makanan terenak di dunia yang dipublikasikan CNN. Urutan tersebut berdasar poling yang mereka lakukan di situs jejaring sosial.
