The city of Busan announced that the MICHELIN Guide will extend to Busan at the debut announcement event on June 1, 2023.
The MICHELIN Guide Busan selection will be unveiled together with the Seoul one in February 2024. The coveted MICHELIN Guide will recognize the best culinary talents and restaurants each destination has to offer, based on the famously anonymous inspector team’s evaluation.
Known for its diverse culinary scene, highlighting many local products and fresh seafood, Busan’s food culture provides a positively extraordinary edge that immediately captivates the taste buds of the most conscientious epicurean, both locally and abroad.
The MICHELIN Guide conveys its restaurant reviews through summaries of the inspectors' experiences and an extensive system of symbols, the most revered of which are its globally renowned MICHELIN Stars. Restaurants may receive one to three MICHELIN Stars for the quality of their food based on five criteria: quality of the ingredients used, mastery of flavors and cooking techniques, the personality of the chef in the cuisine, harmony of the flavors, and consistency between visits.
