The Michelin Guide. Maybe you’ve heard about it? According to many, it’s the ultimate arbiter in culinary taste, having done more to bring about the standards of modern fine dining and help hungry travellers find a spectacular meal than any other publication. According to dissidents, it’s an outmoded, pretentious, Eurocentric rag that has corrupted the soul of cuisine. It’s up to you to decide how you feel. Our outlook is generally positive.
In the spirit of full disclosure, this writer has at various points contributed feature articles to the Guide, and I do think it remains important, with the caveat that it represents a certain perspective. And when you’re talking about ‘Michelin-starred’ cuisine, this is by now a certain genre in and of itself. You know what to expect – beautifully presented course menus, boutique ingredients, and a flair for the artistic, treading in the footsteps of masters like Paul Bocuse and Thomas Keller.
And so these are 10 Bangkok restaurants that have been granted Michelin stars, and we feel they have really earned them. They might be difficult to book, and they might not exactly be daily drivers, but they truly capture what we love about fine dining.
