A bunch of lovely London restaurants have just been added to the Michelin Guide. Eleven of them in fact. The Michelin Guide’s inspectors have the enviable job of eating their way through the world and every month add a new batch of restaurants to their approved list of eateries.
A nod in the Michelin Guide isn’t quite as impressive as a Michelin star – but it’s certainly not to be sniffed at. The new, much-heralded stars for the Michelin Guide Great Britain & Ireland 2025 will be unveiled on February 10 at a ceremony at Glasgow's Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum.
Until then though, let’s celebrate the new additions to the Guide, which include some Time Out favourites, including the seasonal British bistro Sesta in Hackney, Filipino restaurant Donia in Soho and sushi spot Niju in Mayfair.
‘London’s had a particularly strong month, with 11 impressive eateries among our list,’ say the folk from the Michelin Guide. ‘Perhaps most exciting is the sheer variety of styles, from country house tasting menus to Filipino sharing plates – plus two additions to the country’s Japanese restaurant roster.’
