Reply to comment by Shiningc in [OC] Countries with Three Start Michelin Restaurants Since 2007 (Reviews expanded outside of Europe in 2006 but data was not available) by Metalytiq

Nope, Michelin is a french company that created a guide based on french cuisine. So it makes sense that french do french cuisine well.

There might be some bias but it’s not just French cuisine.

No, but most of the criteria fit french food very well. If you look at the restaurants in Japan as an example, a lot of them are french.

Also some of the things that Michelin looks for in French restaurants also naturally overlaps with Japanese ones. Like most Michelin star restaurants will serve smaller portions, neatly plated. That’s how many Japanese dishes are commonly served by default.
