Steirereck - Vienna
Seasonal cuisine with Austrian influences that had some good moments, but ultimately didn’t justify its three stars

Jungsik - New York
Elegant cuisine that incorporates Korean spices and preparation techniques. Some superb dishes, but also some misses

César - New York
Japanese-inspired bites in a counter setting. Some great dishes, but overall not quite at the level of the chef’s previous three-starred restaurant

Casa Marcial - Arriondas
Modern cuisine reflecting Spain’s Asturias region. Very creative, and with a few truly spectacular dishes. Worth the trip to the northwest of Spain

Waldhotel Sonnora - Dreis
French cuisine with some Mediterranean influences that features many amazingly delicious dishes. Highly recommended

Casa Perbellini 12 Apostoli - Verona
Italian cuisine that was quite creative, but tended to fall in the “interesting” rather than the “delicious” category

Cheval Blanc - Basel
French cuisine executed with Swiss precision leads to intensely flavorful, but still well-balanced dishes that are also incredibly delicious. At the high end of three stars

Joël Robuchon - Las Vegas
Classic French cuisine that is unfortunately nowhere near the three Michelin stars it once held, except for a couple of standout dishes. The price tag has unfortunately remained the same, though

Sézanne - Tokyo
French cuisine with Chinese influences and Japanese ingredients. Consistently delicious and worthy of its three stars

Saison - San Francisco
An enjoyable dinner with local produce, but with a less focused cuisine than in its three-star heyday

Turk Fatih Tutak - Istanbul
Modern takes on classic Turkish dishes that are interesting, but lose a bit if one isn't familiar with their traditional versions

Aubergine - Carmel
Consistently flavorful seasonal Californian cuisine with some Japanese ingredients. Makes the drive to picturesque Carmel worth all by itself

Sons & Daughters - San Francisco
Copenhagen meets San Francisco in the best possible way: flavorful and delicious New Nordic cuisine that features seasonal Californian ingredients

Intense - Wachenheim an der Weinstrasse
Intensely flavored, but still well-balanced dishes were the name of the game here, combining local and Japanese influences. A meal that punched above its one-star weight

Ammolite - Rust
The world's only two-starred restaurant in an amusement park served competent French cuisine with Italian influences away from the crowds

Tohru in der Schreiberei - Munich
A unique cuisine that combines Japanese, German and French influences. Very good throughout, but particularly strong with the more Japanese-inspired dishes

Jordnær - Gentofte
Wonderful seafood dishes, with especially strong appetizers. Combined with an unusually welcoming service, this was a great experience

Kadeau - Copenhagen
A restaurant with a great sense of place - most ingredients come from a single island. There were some outstanding dishes, but the majority was oddly light in flavors

Haerlin - Hamburg
Delicious seafood dishes and an almost clairvoyant, relaxed service make this a restaurant that one happily returns to

Bianc - Hamburg
An Italian dinner with some modern touches had some good dishes, but also several disappointing ones, falling a bit short of the expectations set by its two Michelin stars
