About the Michelin Guide
The Michelin Guide awards prestigious stars to restaruants for their culinary excellence based on five criteria. They are: quality of ingredients, harmony of flavors, mastery of techniques, the personality of the chef in their cuisine and consistency. The guide was originally created by the tire company brothers to help motorists travel in 1900. Since then, it has become a global benchmark for fine dining, with anonymous inspectors visiting restaurants to evaluate them.
