Due to a website SNAFU, the Los Angeles Michelin Stars were leaked this past weekend (including in our own comments). No LA restaurant was given the coveted three star rating. There were 15 One Star and 3 Two Star rated restaurants in the LA premier of the guide. Furthermore, 35 restaurants were awarded Bib Gourmand status (Establishments offering a simple menu at less than $25). Result here.

I will be sitting down with the Michelin Guide’s director, Jean-Luc Naret this afternoon. I have plenty to talk to him about, however if you have anything specific you would like me to ask, please let me know.
