Since the first arrival of the “Michelin Guide Taipei” in Taiwan two years ago, the gastronomic bible “Michelin Guide” has caught the attention of Taiwan’s food service industry. The Michelin Guide has successfully caused a food sensation in Taipei. After the triumph of the “Michelin Guide Taipei”, it was announced on November 14 that “The Michelin Guide” will be stepping out of Taipei for the first time. 2020 The Michelin Guide will include “Taichung”. The very first “Michelin Guide Taipei And Taichung” that combines the charms of both cities will be introduced to the public. Nicolas Achard, Managing Director of Michelin Food & Beverage Asia said: “During the past two years, the Michelin Guide has discovered that there are many cities with gourmet potential in Taiwan aside from Taipei. With the bigger scope of the 2020 Michelin Guide and Selections, we look forward to showing the world the beauty of Taiwanese food.”

The Michelin Guide Sets up the Platform

The Michelin Guide introduces each country’s special cuisine which also represents the country’s rich food culture. Since its first edition in 2018, Taipei is the 31th destination to have the Michelin Guide, following the big cities of Paris, New York, and Tokyo.

The Michelin Guide Taipei has built a platform to showcase the food service of Taiwan to the world. Not only has it spread the fame of Taiwanese chefs, but the abundance of local produce has also drawn the attention of many internationally renowned chefs to pay a visit to the island and exchange knowledge and experiences. Chef of the 3 Michelin starred restaurant Alain Ducasse au Plaza Athénée, Alain Ducasse, once said during a visit to Taiwan: “Since Taiwan has so many natural, delicious, and nutritious ingredients, it definitely deserves the world’s attention.” Aisha Ibrahim, known as a future star chef, who once worked in the 3 Michelin starred Azurmendi Executive Chef, is also amazed by the sweetness, taste, and quality of Taiwan’s agricultural products. He even created a new menu using 90% local ingredients from Taiwan.
