Tokyo has unseated Paris as the world’s culinary capital.That’s according to Michelin Guides, the French bible of gastronomy, which announced a Tokyo edition Monday - its first outside Europe and the United States. Michelin’s Tokyo guide awarded 191 stars to 150 restaurants in the Japanese capital, the most number of stars awarded in any city. Previously, Paris had the most stars, at 65.Link

Somehow my dear readers will have to recognize the great magnanism of the French who create guides to shoot themselves in the foot. Time to kill a few more pre-conceived notions ;)
