Michelin Guide Expands to the American South: A Culinary Adventure AwaitsThe Michelin Guide, a global authority in the culinary world, has announced its newest selections, spotlighting the American South's growing food scene, particularly in the Carolinas. Gwendal Poullennec, the international director of the Michelin Guides, shared insights into this expansion. Poullennec, who has led the Guides since 2018, has been instrumental in modernizing and broadening their reach. The Michelin Green Star for sustainable dining is among the new designations. The guide's ambition is to provide reliable, up-to-date advice for travelers, covering North and South Carolina, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, and the existing Atlanta guide. Michelin inspectors, a mix of local and international experts, spend years researching regions before a guide is announced. The expansion of the guide into the American South is expected to further boost the region's culinary excellence and attract more travelers. DNN | The Daily News Now!
