Michelin Guide

Tanner and Jerry explore how a tire company became the world’s first food influencer and now the most powerful name in fine dining. They break down the history of the Michelin Guide, what each star and award represents, and why chefs chase them. Then they unpack the unprecedented news that three of America’s most celebrated restaurants are losing their third star—a shake-up that has the entire industry buzzing. From there, the conversation turns homeward with tips for creating a thoughtful tasting menu in your own kitchen. Finally, Tanner reflects on Rye’s win for Best Cocktail in Texas and shares practical ways to elevate your own drinks to Michelin-worthy status.
