Tohru in der Schreiberei - Munich
Seamless and very unique combination of French, Japanese and Bavarian cuisines that is particularly strong on the Japanese-leaning dishes

Haerlin - Hamburg
Light, seafood-focussed, modern French cuisine that is continuously getting better. A well-deserved three stars

Trèsind Studio - Dubai
The world’s first Indian three-starred restaurant serves dinner in a well-thought-out presentation. Several amazing dishes, but also a few that could have used more intense flavors

FZN by Björn Frantzén - Dubai
The sister restaurant to Frantzen and Zen delivers the same Scandinavian-inspired, Japanese-influenced cuisine, but maybe with slightly toned down flavor intensity. The service is truly world-class

T’ang Court - Hong Kong
Elevated takes on Cantonese and Hong Kongese dishes that fall somewhat short of its three Michelin stars

Amber - Hong Kong
Beautifully presented French cuisine with some amazing courses and some less than stellar ones, and barely anything in-between

Mingles - Seoul
An elevated version of Korean cuisine with some outstanding dishes and great service

Le Coquillage - Saint-Méloir-des-Ondes
An impressive variety of seafood dishes, often featuring ingredients from the local bay and the restaurant’s farm. Unfortunately, the flavor intensity was dialed way down for most of our dinner

Alinea - Chicago
A restaurant that is going for an “experience” rather than a mere dinner. Foodwise, though, this was a far cry from its heydays, and nowhere near its current three stars

Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester - London
Three-starred French cuisine where the same ingredient is prepared many different ways in a single dish. Intriguing, but the results are good rather than great

Moor Hall - Aughton
Local produce is everywhere at this restaurant north of Liverpool, and the best dishes shine the spotlight on single ingredients. Others balance lots of different components - still tasty, but feeling less product-driven

Odette - Singapore
French cuisine with Asian influences that give it a “sense of place”. A very enjoyable meal with a couple of truly outstanding dishes

Sorn - Bangkok
Intensively flavorful and often very spicy tour of Southern Thai cuisine. Truly unique among all the three Michelin starred restaurants

Sushi Shikon - Hong Kong
Sushi that’s very close to the best one can get in Japan, plus several amazing appetizers. A wonderful meal

Caprice - Hong Kong
Solid, sometimes exceptional, French fare with great service and magnificent views of the Hong Kong harbor. Unfortunately without any local influences

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

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
