About this listen
We break down the Michelin Guide’s debut in the American South, how a tire company became the global standard for fine dining, and what the first New Orleans results mean. We cover the big wins and surprises: Emeril’s earning the region’s only two-star rating, Saint Germain and Zasu landing one star, Bib Gourmand nods for Dooky Chase, Cochon and Cochon Butcher, Parkway Tavern, Turkey and the Wolf, and Hungry Eyes, and notable snubs like Dakar NOLA and the Brennan’s family of restaurants.
We also talk about why the guide’s limited reach beyond New Orleans matters for Louisiana’s food culture, how anonymous inspections work, and what this recognition could do for tourism, reservations, and the city’s culinary reputation. Tell us which restaurants you think Michelin missed, and subscribe to stay with us as we keep unpacking the stories, issues, and debates shaping life in Louisiana.
