Michelin Guide

Article by jekky







History br Andr Michelin published the first edition of the guide to help drivers maintain their cars find decent lodging and eat well while touring France It included addresses of gasoline distributors garages tire stockists and information on fuel prices changing tires and repairing automobiles br The guide was distributed freely from 1900 until 1920 The Michelin brothers introduced the charge to establish more credibility after a pile of guides were found propping up a garage workbench The guide introduced the star in 1926 to note good cooking two and three stars were added in the early 1930s The cover of the guide was originally blue but since 1931 has been red br Widespread the star system was developed and guides to other countries introduced Today a series of twelve guides list more than 45 000 hotels and restaurants across Europe and the guide to France has sold 30 million copies since it was introduced There are now Red Guides covering France Austria Netherlands Belgium Luxembourg Italy Germany Spain Portugal Switzerland and the UK Ireland The guide covering France is still by far the most thorough There is also a Red Guide covering the Main Cities of Europe The first guides for cities outside of Europe were published in 2006 for New York City and for San Francisco Hauman br Guides for Tokyo Los Angeles and Las Vegas have been released since November 2007 In guides released in November 2008 Tokyo was awarded a total of 227 stars 9 restaurants were given three stars 36 two stars and 128 one star This is more than three times New York City s total 56 and more than twice as many as Paris s total 96 It should be noted however that Tokyo is home to 160 000 restaurants versus New York City s 25 000 and Paris s 13 000 br In 2008 German restaurateur Juliane Caspar was appointed the editor in chief position of the French edition of the Guide She is the first female and non French national to take over at the French edition br A guide for Kyoto and Osaka was published on 16 October 2009 Kyoto and Osaka were awarded a total of 106 and 79 stars respectively In guides released in November 2009 Tokyo was awarded a total of 261 stars 11 restaurants were given three stars 42 two stars and 144 one star br Red and Green Guides br The Michelin Red Guide has historically had many more listings than its rivals relying on an extensive system of symbols to describe each establishment in as little as two lines Restaurants rated with a star also listed three specialities Recently however very short summaries 2 3 lines have been added for many establishments for example 9 000 in France These short summaries are written in the language of the country for which it is published but the symbols are universal The Red Guide uses anonymous inspections and does not charge for entries Michelin claims to revisit establishments on average once every eighteen months in order to keep ratings up to date br There is a Green Guide for each French region and many countries regions and cities outside France Most Green Guides on France are available in several languages They include background information and an alphabetical section describing points of interest Like the Red Guide they use a three star system for recommending sights three stars worth the trip two stars worth a detour one star interesting br Michelin operates on the principle that only reviews by anonymous professionally trained experts can be trusted for accurate assessments of a restaurant s food and service as opposed for example to Zagat which relies on restaurant patrons for its reviews br Michelin has gone to extraordinary lengths to preserve the anonymity of its inspectors Many of the company s top executives have never met an inspector and inspectors themselves are advised not to disclose their line of work even to their parents who might be tempted to boast about it br The inspectors write detailed reports which are distilled at annual stars meetings into the ranking of 3 stars 2 stars 1 stars or no stars Restaurants which Michelin deems unworthy of patronizing are simply not included in the guide br Michelin stars and other ratings br The guide awards one to three stars to a small number of restaurants of outstanding quality Stars are awarded sparingly for instance in the UK and Ireland 2004 guide out of 5 500 entries there are 98 with one star a very good restaurant in its category 11 with two stars excellent cooking worth a detour and only 4 with three stars exceptional cuisine worth a special journey the newest of them being Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester who was awarded the honour of its third star in January 2010 br A 3 star Michelin ranking is exceedingly rare Only 26 3 star restaurants exist in France and only 81 in the world br Since 1955 the guide has also highlighted restaurants offering good food at moderate prices a feature now called Bib Gourmand They must have a menu priced at no more than 28 in the case of the UK or 40 in Ireland The name comes from Bib Bibendum the Michelin Man Michelin s logo for over a century br The guide also recognizes many restaurants without any stars or Bib Gourmands These restaurants are usually rated solely on the scale of forks and spoons The forks and spoons rating is given to all restaurants recognized in the guide and range from one to five one fork and spoon being Quite comfortable restaurant and five being Luxurious restaurant If the forks and spoons are colored red they designate the restaurant to be pleasant as well The forks and spoons scale is designated to speak of the overall comfort and quality of the restaurant however any listing in the guide requires a relatively high standard of the kitchen as well br Restaurants independently of their other ratings in the guide can also receive a number of other symbols next to their listing br The coins are given to restaurants that serve a menu for a certain price or less The price depends on the local price standard In France the required price is currently 16 50 br Interesting view or Magnificent view designated by a black or red symbol are given to restaurants that offer dining with a view br The grapes are given to restaurants that serve a somewhat interesting assortment of wine br Controversy br Because of their reputation the Michelin Guides are subject to increasing amounts of scrutiny and criticism br Allegations of lax inspection standards br Pascal Rmy a veteran France based Michelin inspector and also a former Gault Millau employee wrote a tell all book in 2004 entitled L Inspecteur Se Met a Table literally The Inspector Sits Down at the Table but also translatable idiomatically as The Inspector Spills the Beans or perhaps more literally The Inspector Puts it all on the Table br He described the Michelin inspector s life as lonely underpaid drudgery driving around France for weeks on end dining alone under intense pressure to file detailed reports on strict deadlines He claimed the Guide had become lax in its standards Though Michelin stated its inspectors visited all 4 000 reviewed restaurants in France every 18 months and all starred restaurants several times a year Rmy said only about one visit every 3 5 years was possible because there were only 11 inspectors in France when he was hired rather than the 50 or more hinted by Michelin and that number had shrunk to 5 by the time he was fired in 2003 br Furthermore Rmy charged the Guide played favourites He specifically named Paul Bocuse the pioneer of nouvelle cuisine whose restaurant l Auberge du Pont de Collonges near Lyon was known according to Rmy to have declined considerably in quality yet continued to hold 3 stars Michelin denied Rmy s charges but refused to say how many inspectors it actually employed in France and offered a rebuttal if it weren t true customers would write and tell us to Rmy s claim that certain 3 star chefs were untouchable Rmy s employment was terminated when he informed Michelin of his plans to publish his book He brought a court case for unfair dismissal which was unsuccessful br Accusations of bias br As the Michelin Guide is published by a French company some US food critics have claimed that the rating system is biased towards French cuisine or towards the formality and presentation of the dining experience When the Michelin Guide released the first edition of the New York City guide Steven Kurutz of the New York Times noted that Danny Meyer s Union Square Cafe a restaurant rated highly by other American guides the New York Times and Zagat Survey received a no star rating from the guide However Kurutz also noted that the restaurant was included in the guide and received positive mention for its ambiance and that two other restaurants owned by Meyer did receive stars Kurutz also claimed the guide appeared to favour restaurants that emphasised formality and presentation rather than a casual approach to fine dining for which the Union Square Cafe is famous He also claimed that over half of the restaurants that received one or two stars could be considered French br Further reading br Trois toiles au Michelin Une
