These eateries are well on their way to food world stardom.
On Wednesday, the Michelin Guide released the names of 11 establishments its dining inspectors determined to be worthy of addition to this year’s Michelin Guide New York.
Being included in the Guide, while not on par with or a promise of receiving a coveted Michelin Star, is still a great grub honor.
The New York guide — which spans the boroughs and beyond — is updated continuously, and currently recommends 449 restaurants, not to mention a gloriously overwhelming amount of great food.
“[The] choices for where to eat are literally endless,” Michelin noted in its announcement, acknowledging that, with the addition of the new 11 entrants, “that choice just got so much harder.”
(Other Michelin Guide-worthy cities include Chicago, Washington, DC, the state of California, San Francisco, Toronto and, most recently, Colorado and Atlanta.)
The most recent Guide items include one venue in Westchester, two in Brooklyn, eight in Manhattan — and none in Staten Island, Queens or The Bronx.
In Brooklyn, there’s Crown Heights pastry shop Agi’s Counter and Prospect Lefferts Gardens’ contemporary seafood spot Kingfisher (which, Eater observed, is curiously currently closed “until further notice,” according to its website). In Manhattan there’s the vegetarian diner-style joint Superiority Burger’s new East Village location, as well as the neighborhood’s hole-in-the-wall Little Myanmar.
The Westchester item is Peekskill’s Apropos Restaurant at The Abbey Inn, a traditional-leaning American joint in a 120-year-old restored abbey-turned-inn and restaurant.
This year’s Michelin Star recipients, meanwhile, will be announced at an invite-only Nov. 7 ceremony set to take place at Tribeca’s Spring Studios.
This year’s Bib Gourmand-worthy eateries — Michelin’s separate “best value for money restaurants” honor for more affordable venues — will be announced separately, at the very start of the month, on Nov. 1, a spokesperson told Eater.
