AsemconnectVietnam - For the first time, 103 restaurants in Vietnam have been honoured by Michelin Guide, and four of them were awarded a prestigious Michelin Star at a ceremony on June 6 night.

 The status bestowed on these eateries will elevate Vietnamese cuisine to even higher levels around the world.

They were given the prestigious star from the famous French guidebook for offering high quality cooking and outstanding culinary experiences.

Also at the ceremony, 29 establishments with 13 in Hanoi and 16 in HCM City were awarded a Bib Gourmand (Inspectors’ Favourites for Quality Cooking at Moderate Prices).

The Bib Gourmand distinction highlights the restaurants within the Michelin Guide restaurant selection that stand out for value-for-money offers. Out of the 29 Bib Gourmand establishments, more than half offer Vietnamese cuisine or street food, strongly reflecting the high popularity of street food being rooted in the local culture.

A total of 70 other eateries (32 in Hanoi and 38 in HCM City) also joined the Michelin Guide Hanoi and HCM City 2023 selection, known as the Michelin Selected restaurants./.
