Consistency is the thing, as quality is easily copied. The cooking techniques are transfered over far more chefs, so many more cook at the olden day Michelin standard. That's why it's confetti… otherwise you have to raise the bar further. Also, these days there are far more restaurants, obviously.
Michelin stars are only as powerful as their relevance. The reason they throw them out like confetti, is because they only hold power so long as people believe in them. It's just like money. We all collectively decide that a piece of paper has value. If Michelin is extremely reserved about giving out stars, then restaurants and their guests will just stop giving af about them. Michelin has gone so ridiculous, that they started giving away accolades to mobile food carts, as well as street vendors.
Mine is a provocatory comment, meant for personal insight and sincere deeper understanding: in a world that struggles with harmony and even fair distribution of food, why are we still giving a darn about michelin stars? It feels so nautiously pretentious.
Back then it was pure cooking, no kitchen technology. It's like working in a hospital in modern michellin kitchens. Although chefs nowadays are geniuses compared to back then.
He's not wrong did y'all know Uwe Boll the director of movies like Alone in the Dark Postal and House.of the Dead and Bloodrayne.has a 2 Michelin star restaurant in Canada

Oh how money courrupts.. hmm
The only point of Michelin was to sell tyres
Standards in everything go down over time. It’s really sad.
Chefs are insufferable
Like Ramsay today…. He's not in any of the restaurants he has stars in, it means nothing! Why would I eat there?
This is absolutely true. Earlier this year a Copenhagen restaurant got a star after being open for 42 days.
Michelin has lost its value.

It's always about consistency ! Unfortunatly in this fast moving world, Consistency has become the last great frontier of real wealth….
Mastery is declining
Marco is the coolest…
Also Knorr stock pots
Critics opinions dont matter.
His son could get three stars today.
To be fair that's exactly how he got his stars. Very fast after opening. So this has been going on a long time
His mic technique is sub Michelin star.
Michelin awards stars to a restaurant, not a chef. MPW must know this.
"but that's your choice"

Stars are now negotiable and on sale.
its true they give them out like candy. the traditions shouldnt have changed!
He's extremely arrogant, but at least he backs up his stance with sources.
About what you'd expect.
Hard to argue with him on that last bit. To get an award as a chef not behind a stove, you better make good sushi.
‘Like confetti’ had me drying on the floor 😂
they’re both equally jaded and corrupt.
Everyone gets a gold star
I can't believe a tire company wanted people to wear out tires to travel to stars restaurants they rewarded.
The age of dumb' em down, I call it cheating for your favorites, overlooking the great ones because they don't feeding into your narcissism…
Fierce… I totally respect working chefs. Always have…
Everything is given out easier today. Standards have fallen. People are catering to the lowest common denominator.
I do you say that “stoev”.

Bumped in to Marco at the farmers dog
This guy is a sore loser lol
Michelin gave a Star to a taco truck in Mexico that only serves steak tacos with no toppings or salsa. What a joke
Its a marketing scheme, thats how it started that's how still is and even more
As technology progresses, people get lazier, and we regress as a society, ironically enough
🫅
Michelin starts should only be given to chefs by chefs who have been in the industry for decades.
Don't like him 😮
Confetti star restaurant?
ah yes another Stein who wrote a book
Freemasonery at his finest
