Michelin guide coming to Guangzhou

Following on from its release of a publication for Shanghai last year, Michelin has announced it will extend Michelin Guide coverage to a further city in China. A Michelin guide for Guangzhou will be available in 2018, and Michelin says it will allow everyone – locals, tourists, and business travellers alike – to benefit from the inspectors’ recommendations whatever their desires, tastes and budgets may be. The guide for Guangzhou will be the world’s 31st Michelin guide selection and the seventh in Asia, excluding Japan.

“We are particularly pleased to continue our deployment in China, following on from Hong Kong launched just ten years ago and Shanghai more recently,” comments Claire Dorland-Clauzel, executive vice-president Sustainable Development, Brands, External Relations and the Michelin guide. “This international development is the result of the success and popularity of the Michelin guide among chefs and gourmets, who have full confidence in our independence, our long-standing expertise, and our unique selection method. By highlighting the culinary scene in Guangzhou, the arrival of the Michelin guide will be a key lever in promoting the city as an international tourist destination.”

The MICHELIN guide Guangzhou 2018 will be available in paper and digital format.
