“L.A. needs to work harder to have a three-star Michelin restaurant,” said chef Ludo Lefebvre, whose Trois Mec was awarded one star.
Chef Niki Nakayama, center, celebrates after her restaurant, n/naka, was awarded two Michelin stars during a live reveal of the 2019 California Michelin Guide in Huntington Beach. Two months after announcing that it would once again evaluate the dining scene in Los Angeles, the prestigious but unpredictable Michelin Guide awarded stars to 90 California restaurants on Monday, including 24 in L.A.
“I just want to say: We’re a team of 20, with 13 girls and seven men,” a tearful Niki Nakayama said onstage of her Palmsrestaurant, n/naka. “California is a state of dreams, and our restaurant could only exist in California.” Last week, Michelin gave its first indication of how it had judged Los Angeles when it revealed its 151 California Bib Gourmand; restaurants on that list, according to the company, provide “high-quality meals which include two courses and a glass of wine or dessert for $40 or less.”
“I feel relieved,” said chef Kevin Meehan after his Hancock Park restaurant, Kali, was awarded a star. “I’ve worked with mostly Michelin restaurants my whole career, so I’m glad to be part of the club. It’s a huge honor.” “We really feel California has potential for more starred restaurants, and more three-star restaurants,” Poullennec said. “We’re optimistic for the coming years.”“L.A. needs to work harder to have a three-star Michelin restaurant,” said Ludo Lefebvre, whose French tasting menu restaurant Trois Mec was awarded one star.
