so here are the current locations of Michelin 3-Starred restaurants in the US by urban and suburban/rural locations:

Urban
4--New York, NY(Eleven Madison Park, Le Bernardin, Masa, Per Se)
3--San Francisco, CA(Atalier Crenn, Benu, Quince)
2--Chicago, IL(Alinea, Smyth)
1--San Diego, CA(Addison)

Suburban/Rural
1--Healdsburg, CA(Single Thread)
1--Washington, VA(The Inn at Little Washington)
1--Yountville, CA(The French Laundry)
This thread isn’t really about the types of restaurants. I was thinking of making a separate thread to discuss cuisine diversity and the level of stars for each. DC has added many Michelin star restaurants from the African American diaspora. It would be interesting to see how many different types of cuisine are represented by Michelin stars in each city. It would provide a great overview of the diversity of food in each city.

Oh definitely. I'm just point out that the controversy was with people that go to brunch places and/or know nothing about the food scene. He didn't visit any of the restaurants on the Michelin list, that's for sure.

Oriole and Ever both deserve a third-star if Smyth reached that level imo. Chicago seems to be underrepresented given the amount of creativity, innovation and excellence in the high-end dining scene here. Warlord is a sensation right now with the biggest buzz in the city and widespread acclaim and wasn't given even one-star.

I saw the director of the guide asked back in 2013 how San Francisco could have so many starred-restaurants yet Chicago has exceptional places with universal acclaim that aren't acknowledged. The answer was completely arbitrary.

It’s the audience’s fault and the partially the fault of middle class black influencer culture. These restaurants should have never been recommended to Keith to being with but people put these places on a pedestal because they’re black celebrity owned. There’s a certain black bougie culture in Atlanta that patronizes places like these for the clout and social media attention.

Yes the video below details everything nicely. It wasn't Atlanta's entire food scene but just a part of it. Ever since the pandemic, some service has been shot and leaving a lot desired. The restaurants in question need to step their service up.

Keith Lee is turning the restaurant world upside down. Not sure there's been a more influential food critic in the last ten years.

This was actually a pretty good video and I agree mostly with everything he's saying in the video. I personally would never go to most if not all the places Keith went to in Atlanta. He went to all the overhyped social media places.
