Michelin stars take bite out of Big Apple
Print Edition
New York鈥檚 status as a major gastronomic destination has been reaffirmed once again by the 2016 Michelin guide, with Brooklyn鈥檚 dynamic food scene gaining in star power.
The number of New York restaurants awarded stars by the celebrated culinary guide is now 76, up from 73 a year ago.
That鈥檚 half again as many as there were five years ago (57 in 2011) and nearly double the 39 starred restaurants a decade ago, when the guide began publishing a New York edition.
The Michelin guide鈥檚 international director, Michael Ellis, saluted 鈥渢he energy and the constant evolution of the city鈥檚 dining scene,鈥 in a statement on Wednesday announcing the new list.
In his view, the 鈥渋mpressive鈥 number of styles of cuisine 鈥渃onfirms New York鈥檚 position as one of the world鈥檚 most exciting dining destinations.鈥
At the top of the New York dining scene, little has changed from last year, with the six same restaurants holding onto their coveted three stars.
Three of them have been in that elite group for 10 years: Jean-Georges, Le Bernardin and Per Se 鈥 the first two led by French chefs, Jean-Georges Vongerichten and Eric Ripert, respectively.
In the level below them, the only bit of news was the second star awarded to The Modern, located inside the Museum of Modern Art, which raised to 10 the number of restaurants with two stars.
At the one star level, the ferment was much greater with at least 10 new entries.
Among them were two restaurants in Brooklyn, New York鈥檚 trendiest borough.
First is The Finch, unpretentious in decor and in prices, serving seasonal American cuisine. Next is Semilla, a restaurant with a 鈥渧egetable-leaning鈥 menu and only 18 seats, arranged around a central bar 鈥渢o provoke conversation and interaction at your will,鈥 according to its website.
