What does Michelin restaurant mean?

Michelin-starred restaurants refer to the restaurants listed in the Michelin Red Guide. /kloc-in 0/900, the founder of Michelin, a French tire manufacturer, published a Michelin Guide the size of a portable manual, in which the red cover edition is an evaluation of restaurants and hotels along the way, and the green cover edition is a tour itinerary planning, scenic spot recommendation, road guidance and other contents. The Michelin red guide with the red cover has the greatest influence. The guide evaluates and ranks restaurants every year, and all the restaurants included are Michelin restaurants.

Restaurants listed in Michelin Guide should at least get the knife and fork logo, which is the basic evaluation standard of restaurants in the guide, ranging from the highest 5 pairs to 1 pair, mainly indicating the comfort of restaurants.

Michelin stars are judged by a group of screened "food spies", who are called "inspectors". Every time inspectors go to restaurants and hotels to judge, they need to hide their identity, sneak into accommodation and taste. The scoring items they need to refer to include food (60%), dining environment (20%), service (10%) and wine matching (10%).

star

Michelin restaurant scoring system * * * has three levels:

1 star: a good restaurant worth stopping at (this statement is of course because Michelin makes tires);

2 stars: first-class cooking, providing excellent food and wine matching, it is worth a detour, but the cost is not low;

3-star: Perfect top-level cooking is worth a special trip. You can enjoy first-class food, excellent table wine, perfect service and elegant dining environment, but it costs a lot of money.
