Need Michelin restaurant Recs! My grandparents are turning 90, im not sure how much longer I’ll have to treat them. They used to own a restaurant in the 70s and love food. I have literally no budget, I just want to blow their minds. They are East Asian if it matters. Will accept other restaurant Recs but I’m looking for something insanely delicious.

What I found with my grandparents is that costly places != enjoyment. They actually got more conscious looking at the prices and the people around. Obviously everyone is different, but that’s what I learnt. What blew their minds was spending meaningful time with me over an entire weekend

Takeda. If they enjoy omakase they will love this. It’s a very quiet and romantic restaurant.

Take them to Atomix or to Chef’s Table at Brooklyn Fare. (Personally, I’d go with Atomix.)

Oxalis tasting menu was one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Saga was pretty great. Studio Kitchen in philly. Alinea in Chicago. Minibar in DC.

Atera is phenomenal

Also Cho Dang Gol is phenomenal for Korean food, if that’s their thing

Look at Jeju Noodle Bar, Atomix, Cote, Kochi, Jungsik for Asian/Asian flavors

Other great options include Saga, Aquavit, Le Bernardin. Basically any 3 star or 2 star (except maybe EMP lol) will be an amazing meal.

Jungsik was an amazing experience

Zuma NY — their omakase was AMAZING and my parents don’t like only sushi/raw fish options and they were very happy with the omakase selection there (lots of cooked foods and entrees). Gaonnuri for penthouse kbbq.

No no gaonnuri is not worth the price

Aquavit, Le Bernadin, Jean Georges. Keep in mind that you have to book a month ahead at some of the highest-rated restaurants. Aquavit seems to be easier to get reservations.

CM1, did you go recently? I haven’t been there in years but my SO loved it.

I think they had their star taken away but Junoon is 🤯🤯🤯

RT junoon is SO good
