In fact, the Michelin three-star selection standard is very high, and there are only 68 Michelin three-star restaurants in the world in 2019. Michelin initially rated stars for French restaurants, and later for global restaurants, the pursuit of low-salt, low oil, green and healthy. Only Cantonese cuisine in China is close to this requirement. That's why there are fewer Michelin three-star restaurants in China.

When it comes to Michelin restaurants, we can't help but think of them as "high, big, high". The so-called "Michelin" restaurants have been linked to the so-called "Michelin" restaurants in China. Contact, the so-called Michelin restaurant, refers to the "Michelin Red Book" of food, restaurants around the world included in the restaurant. Although mainland China has countless cuisines and good restaurants, there are actually only two Michelin three-star restaurants.

Why are there so few Michelin three-star restaurants in mainland China?

China is a big country of food culture, yet there are only two Michelin three-star restaurants in mainland China, Shanghai, which are Tang Court and ULTRAVIOLET by Paul Pairet, which can't help but be saddened by the fact that it's because the Chinese food can't win the hearts of the judges or the Michelin restaurant selection standards are too high?

In fact, this issue should be viewed from many aspects, first of all, Michelin three-star selection standards are very high, according to the 2018 Michelin Guide, the world's Michelin three-star restaurants are only 68, of which there are 34 in Japan, for the world's largest number of three-star restaurants in the country. Therefore, it can also be seen that the Michelin three-star restaurant selection is exceptionally strict.

Secondly, the Michelin Red Book initially assessed the star rating for French restaurants, and later for the global restaurant rating, the pursuit of low-salt, low oil, green and healthy, the pursuit of the flavor of the ingredients themselves. Mainland China's? Among the eight major cuisines in mainland China, only Cantonese cuisine is far from this standard. In mainland China, only Cantonese cuisine is close to this requirement, and Tang Court is rated as a three-star restaurant should also have this part of the reason.

Third, it's shorter. The Michelin Red Book first entered mainland China in 2016, so it's still relatively early to draw conclusions.

What is the relationship between Michelin restaurants and Michelin tires?

What's the first thing that comes to mind when the word Michelin is mentioned? Tires or food? And what is the relationship between the two?In 1900, the founders of Michelin tires thought to themselves that if automobile travel develops, their tires will also sell well. So they brought together restaurants, maps, gas stations, hotels, auto repair shops, and other information that would help automobile travel, and published a Michelin Guide that guided people to drive to country wildernesses that were hard to reach on foot by providing them with information on meals and travel. When cars are used more, tires naturally wear out faster, which makes the tire business better.

The guide was later streamlined and published in two versions: a red-covered accommodation guide with information on restaurants and hotels, and a green-covered ? Green Guide? The red guide?

The guide now recommends 45,000 restaurants across 23 countries. The Michelin Red Guide, which is refreshed annually, is used by? Gourmets? It is regarded as the bible of European gastronomy. Later, it began to hire professional food detectives to conduct rigorous, objective reviews, issue authoritative recommendations, and began to implement fees. Currently, the price of a copy of the latest Michelin guide can be steep.
