If you’re looking to explore restaurants outside Chicago, good news: The MICHELIN Guide is expanding.
The Guide recently announced that it will be releasing a Great Lakes edition. However, Chicago will not be included in this edition, as it has its own separate Michelin Guide.
This edition will cover major cities in the region, including Cleveland, Detroit, Indianapolis, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, and Pittsburgh.
The MICHELIN guide is finally expanding to 6 major Great Lakes cities
The MICHELIN Guide’s anonymous inspectors are currently in the field, making dining reservations and searching for culinary gems throughout the region.
Peggy Williams-Smith, President & CEO of Visit Milwaukee,said
The MICHELIN Guide recognizing our city is a proud moment for our community and a testament to the incredibly talented chefs and hospitality professionals who make dining here so memorable.
Their craft, care, and unmistakable Milwaukee spirit create experiences you can’t find anywhere else, and we’re ready for the world to discover it.
The complete restaurant selection will be revealed in 2027 at the MICHELIN Guide American Great Lakes Ceremony, which will be announced at a later date.
The Michelin Guide began awarding stars to restaurants in France in 1926. In 2005, it expanded to North America, initially recognizing restaurants in New York City, San Francisco, and Chicago.
