Michelin Stars for Ritz-Carlton Restaurants
The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, L.L.C, has earned 13 Michelin Stars for 2015, across eight restaurants in six hotels within Asia and Europe.
The world of three Michelin Star restaurants is extremely small, with a little over 100 restaurants in total around the world — one of which is ‘AQUA’ at The Ritz-Carlton, Wolfsburg in Germany. Aqua retained three stars for its modern European cuisine, crafted by Chef de Cuisine Sven Elverfeld.
The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong also retained Michelin Stars across two of its signature restaurants. ‘Tin Lung Heen’ maintains two stars for its traditional Dim Sum, created by Michelin-starred Chef Paul Lau Ping Lui. ‘Tosca’, with its Romanesque decor and ambience, retains one star for its mix of innovation and tradition combined to create Italian gastronomy under Chef Pino Lavarra.
Host to two of the starred restaurants is The Ritz-Carlton, Abama, a luxury resort in Tenerife, Spain. ‘M.B’, the signature Michelin Star restaurant of Basque chef Martin Berasategui, known for his interpretations of Spanish cuisine, earned its original Michelin Star in 2010, and was awarded a second in 2014.
Hot on its gastronomic heels is the one Michelin-starred ‘Kabuki’, with Spanish chef Ricardo Sanz at the helm, combining traditional Japanese influences with contemporary western techniques and ingredients indigenous to the Canary Islands.
