Introduction
With 13 starred restaurants and a total of 16 Michelin stars, Luxembourg has the privilege of having the most stars per capita of any city in the world. Needless to say that one eats well in Luxembourg. And one should. It is the richest French-speaking city in the world (in terms of GDP per capita), and is situated at the heart of a wine-making region.
Gourmet Restaurants
The Michelin Red Guide is the international reference in terms of restaurant evaluation. The guide awards one to three stars to a small number of restaurants of outstanding quality.
One star indicates a "very good cuisine in its category", a two-star ranking represents "excellent cuisine, worth a detour," and three stars are awarded to restaurants offering "exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey".
The following restaurants have been awarded stars by Michelin Belgium & Luxembourg 2012.
The Gault Millau Guide is the other influential French restaurant guide. It is known as Gayot in English-speaking countries. It rates restaurants on a scale from 1 to 20, awarding one toque to restaurants with a rating of 13 or 14, two toques for those scoring 15 or 16, three toques for 17 and 18, and four toques for the top score of 19/20. Five toques are awarded in some countries like France for restaurants scoring 19.5/20. The Gault Millau rating is shown in brackets after the Michelin star(s).
