The MICHELIN Guide will debute in Mexico in 2024-Throwback
MICHELIN Comes to Mexico, and the World Has to Pay Attention
A Guide, a Spotlight, a Statement
When the MICHELIN Guide debuts in Mexico, it’s not just a new list—it’s global validation for what locals have always known. Daniela Mijares (CEO, CANIRAC) calls it “a source of pride” that Mexico’s culinary excellence is recognized internationally, powered by a joint commitment to elevate the country’s restaurant scene.
Where Inspectors Are Looking
Gwendal Poullennec (International Director, The MICHELIN Guide) says inspectors explored Mexico’s “ancient, vibrant” capital, the coasts, Oaxaca’s charm, and Baja’s rugged splendor—focusing on Mexico City, Oaxaca, Baja California, Los Cabos, and Nuevo León.
Beyond Stars
Not ignoring reality: guides don’t define a culture. But they can amplify it—especially when chefs are pushing chiles, masa, agave spirits, seafood, and chocolate into new heights.
