Vancouver will become the second Canadian city in the Michelin Guide’s growing international roster, and it could be what the local industry needs, post-pandemic
The Michelin Guide is coming to Vancouver. And as The Globe and Mail’s long-time restaurant critic for this city, I’m excited.
And that’s about all we know about the secretive judging process, which could certainly benefit from more transparency. If there is a similar result in Vancouver, it will be embarrassing. But for better or worse, it will inspire restaurants to up their game. The contract with Destination Vancouver was signed for five years, so there is time to improve.
And as I’ve been telling people for years, international awards are not won just on the basis of merit. Government agencies must get behind them and bring those judges here. It was no coincidence that Eleven Madison Park was ranked No. 1 on the World’s 50 Best Restaurants list in 2017, one year after the awards ceremony was held in New York – with sponsorship from that local tourism board. Yes, it’s a game, but you have to be in it to win it.
