Chef Joël Robuchon on the news that his NYC restaurant L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon was bumped from one Michelin star to two: "Ten years ago, Michelin wouldn't have given this restaurant two stars. They used to judge on the table setting [and formality]. Now they judge the food more. But I appreciate very much that we never know when they come. They are anonymous. [Other critics] sometimes tell you they are there — and then don't pay for their food." [GSNY]
