Gordon Ramsay at The London and Corton restaurant have both lost their two stars, the latter not not entirely unexpectedly after the departure of head-chef Paul Liebrandt in July 2013. And after its closure in December 2012, Gilt restaurant at the New York Palace hotel, will no longer be featured in the New York City guide.
The number of two-star restaurants in New York City now stands at 5 (7 in the 2013 guide).
In the 2014 edition nine restaurants have been awarded their first star. The new laureats are Aska (Brooklyn), Mario Batali's Babbo (Greenwich Village), Carbone (Greenwich Village, opened in March 2013), Caviar Russe (Midtown Manhattan), Ichimura at Brushstroke (TriBeCa), Le Restaurant (TriBeCa, opened in April 2013), Lincoln (Upper West Side), The Musket Room (SoHo, opened in May 2013) and Telepan (Upper West Side).
Alain Ducasse's one-star Adour will not be featured in the 2014 guide, since the restaurant closed its doors in November 2012.
The 2014 New York City guide will feature 55 one-star restaurants in total.
No changes in Michelin's highest, three star, category. New York City's seven three-star restaurants are: Eleven Madison Park (Daniel Humm), Per Se (Thomas Keller), Chef's Table at Brooklyn Fare (César Ramirez), Daniel (Daniel Boulud), Le Bernardin (Eric Ripert), Jean Georges (Jean Georges Vongerichten) and Masa (Masa Takayama).
As announced last week the New York City 2014 guide features 138 restaurants (126 last year) in the Bib Gourmand category (2 courses and wine or dessert for $40 or less), which include a diverse range of 31 cuisine types across the five boroughs, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island.
