[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First off, who in the hell ever made Michelin the king S of F mountain over determining what is the best food in the world?  We just went to a two star restaurant last night and were thoroughly disappointed.  The waitress missed our drink order.  [b]The portions of the food were grotesque and we couldn’t even finish the full course.  The bathrooms were not amazingly clean.  The were floods of loud tourist who were allowed in wearing baseball caps, t shirts and jeans, which completely ruins the atmosphere. [/b] The food overall tasted good, but nothing spectacular that I will probably even remember 6 months from now.

Meanwhile, I’ve been to so many places where I’ve had amazing food for less than $25 a plate and Michelin isn’t anywhere around for miles.  I’ve probably been to 5 Michelin starred restaurants in my,life at this point, and I can’t even remember the courses at this point because they were so mediocre. Meanwhile, my death row last meal will be some chicken andcric3vdish I had from a restaurant in Chiang Mai that cost me $3.  And no, I’m not anti-fine dining.  I’ve been to higher end places that were really good but not in any Michelin guide.  Michelin was probably reputable and good in the 1970s, but these days Michelin restaurants are synonymous with grossly overpriced food that’s often super overrated. Do yourself a favor and avoid going to Michelin restaurants.  They’re so overhyped. [/quote]

This doesn't describe any experience I've ever had at a Michelin starred restaurant, OP, and I've been to a lot more than you have.  You're going to have to name the restaurant, or we're going to disregard this screed as fiction - a not very well done effort at creative writing.  [/quote]
