Sun Moon Studio - Oakland
Californian cuisine with Asian influences means several imaginative dishes in one of the Bay Area’s hottest (and smallest) restaurants
Victor's Fine Dining by Christian Bau - Perl
Impressively flavorful and delicious dishes that take inspirations from Japanese and French cuisines. The Asian-influenced preparations were especially strong
a|o|c - Copenhagen
Scandinavian cuisine with big flavors, but still well-balanced dishes
Geranium - Copenhagen
Modern Scandinavian cuisine focussing on single ingredients. Some terrific dishes, but also some that are merely “quite good”
Ophelia - Konstanz
A solid two-Michelin-star experience that takes inspiration from local dishes and ingredients
Cheval Blanc - Basel
Delicious French cuisine with subtle Asian influences that is bursting with flavors and accompanied by a great service
Somni - West Hollywood
Modern Spanish cuisine with consistently amazing presentations and a very interactive staff
Providence - Los Angeles
An impressive variety of seafood with diverse preparations made for a delicious meal that had three stars coming for a long time
Tohru in der Schreiberei - Munich
Seamless and very unique combination of French, Japanese and Bavarian cuisines that is particularly strong on the Japanese-leaning dishes
Eichhalde - Freiburg
Italian restaurant serving some unusual modern dishes. However, their more traditional preparations were generally more enjoyable
Haerlin - Hamburg
Light, seafood-focussed, modern French cuisine that is continuously getting better. A well-deserved three stars
Trèsind Studio - Dubai
The world’s first Indian three-starred restaurant serves dinner in a well-thought-out presentation. Several amazing dishes, but also a few that could have used more intense flavors
FZN by Björn Frantzén - Dubai
The sister restaurant to Frantzen and Zen delivers the same Scandinavian-inspired, Japanese-influenced cuisine, but maybe with slightly toned down flavor intensity. The service is truly world-class
Moonrise - Dubai
A chef’s personal take on growing up and living in Dubai, viewed through a fine-dining lens. Great fun with tasty dishes in an intimate setting
Orfali Bros - Dubai
Middle Eastern bistro fare, incorporating other foreign cuisines. Enjoyable, with good service, but missing true standout dishes
Manao - Dubai
A tour de force of creative Thai-inspired dishes that are bursting with flavors. Not authentic by any means, but imbued with a contagious exuberance, it made for an extremely fun and tasty meal
Atelier Crenn - San Francisco
Californian-French cuisine with lots of seafood, and several dishes bursting with flavors. The menu changed completely since our visit two months ago
T’ang Court - Hong Kong
Elevated takes on Cantonese and Hong Kongese dishes that fall somewhat short of its three Michelin stars
Amber - Hong Kong
Beautifully presented French cuisine with some amazing courses and some less than stellar ones, and barely anything in-between
Mingles - Seoul
An elevated version of Korean cuisine with some outstanding dishes and great service
