In the Royal Theater in Mons, Michelin today unveiled the restaurants selection of the MICHELIN Guide Belgium and Luxembourg 2023.
With a total of 816 restaurants, including 149 MICHELIN-Star restaurants, and 147 restaurants awarded the Bib Gourmand, the millesime 2023 distinguishes itself by a very refreshing vigor. The 2023 selection thus numbers one new Two MICHELIN Star restaurant, 16 new One Star restaurants, 4 new MICHELIN Green Star restaurants and 22 new Bib Gourmand restaurants.
“The MICHELIN Guide’s inspectors have put their hearts into compiling the new selection for the two countries. They have enthusiastically noted the dynamism and commitment shown by the local chefs in their quest for a more sustainable gastronomy, and their desire, in a very difficult context, to give their guests those precious moments of pure delight. The new crop of restaurants receiving the MICHELIN distinctions, many with young chefs, exhibit the extraordinary creativity which is sweeping through the gastronomic scene in Belgium and Luxembourg, and the increasing desire of many professionals to offer their guests a dining experience which is more in line with society’s ecological concerns, but without losing any of its creativity and delicious tastes.” underlines Gwendal Poullennec, International Director of the MICHELIN Guides.
