    • About Michelin Stars

    In 1900, Andre Michelin published the first edition of a guide to France to help drivers maintain their cars, find decent lodging, and eat well while touring. It included addresses of gasoline distributors, garages, tire stockists, public toilets, etc. In 1926, the guide introduced the star to note good cooking; two and three stars were added in the early 1930s. (The maximum amount of stars given is three.) The cover of the guide was originally blue, but since 1931 has been red.

    One star = a very good restaurant in its category
    Two stars = excellent cooking, worth a detour
    Three stars = exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey
