MICHELIN Guide Great Britain & Ireland 2010

(Paris 15 J anuary 2010) The MICHELIN Guide Great Britain & Ireland 2010 will be
available in bookshops from Monday 1 February in France (22,90 euros).

This years guide includes one new three-star restaurant (Alain Ducasse at The
Dorchester) and one new two-star (The Ledbury), both in London. Included in the list
of 18 new one-stars is Sienna, a small, family run restaurant in Dorset and The
Harwood Arms, the first pub in London to achieve this accolade. Bray-on-Thames has
yet another star The Royal Oak. Away from England there are also three new stars in
Scotland and three in Wales.

Commenting on the 2010 guide, Editor Derek Bulmer said: Last year was clearly a difficult
year for hotels and restaurants but those establishments who reacted by being more flexible
and creative appear to be riding the storm. Value for money has also been an important
factor and we have awarded 28 new Bib Gourmand awards good food at moderate prices
which reflects this.

Chefs have had to be more resourceful and restaurants have had to adapt to changing
eating habits. Some have even introduced credit crunch menus to help fight the recession.
Long-established restaurants have proved to be resilient but we have also seen plenty of
new openings.

There is now a greater geographical spread of starred restaurants and the inspectors will
continue to seek out establishments serving particularly good food, wherever they are
situated.

As we head into this new decade, the hotel and restaurant industry appears to be leaner
and fitter. Greater emphasis is being placed on satisfying customers needs; diversity
continues to be one of the UKs greater strengths and the publics interest in chefs, food and
cooking shows no sign of abating.

The format of the MICHELIN guide means it offers its readers an unrivalled selection of
hotels and restaurants to suit all pockets. The 2010 guide recommends more than 1,900
hotels and guesthouses and 2,000 restaurants and pubs. All are regularly and anonymously
inspected by Michelins own team of professional, full-time inspectors and inclusion in the
guide is free of charge.

At the same time, the MICHELIN Guide London 2010 is also launched priced at 9.99
(11.99 in Ireland). This guide forms part of Michelins collection of city guides. It features
additional descriptive text, and two entries per page for non-starred restaurants and one
entry per page with photographs for starred restaurants.
