Five New York City restaurants have earned three star ratings from the Michelin Guide, which announced its selection of starred restaurants in New York City and Westchester today.
"As an international destination for gastronomy and tourism, New York City continues to serve as a global leader, thanks to its rich diversity in cuisine types, wealth of talent and experience among chefs," said Gwendal Poullennec, international director of the MICHELIN Guides in a statement. "Inspectors were especially impressed by an extraordinary execution of the Guide’s five criteria including the quality of ingredients, the mastery of cooking technique, the harmony of flavors, consistency over time, both during the meal and throughout the year, and the personality of the chef as it is expressed on the plate."
There are 76 restaurants on the list, and the top five restaurants are the same as last year—Chef's Table at Brooklyn Fare; Eleven Madison Park; Le Bernadin; Masa; and Per Se—while there are a number of new additions, including The Four Horsemen, a Williamsburg bar owned by LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy and Crown Shy, a Financial District restaurant from a former Eleven Madison Park chef.
