And it is a great honor to receive a star. closest path? For high-end restaurants, you can have up to three. However, (always anonymous) Michelin inspectors are not welcome everywhere.

Where is it not welcome? For example, Le Restaurant Marc Veyrat in the ski resort of Megève.

What did Monsieur Verat get for Michelin? It all started five years ago, when the famous chef took his guide to court after the guide smelled his cheese soufflé and downgraded his restaurant from three stars to two.

What was wrong with the soufflé? Apparently they added English cheddar cheese. He denied it and demanded that the list be removed. he lost the case.
